[mv] Credit Card can contain invalid characters

[Ryan <rps@willconsult.com>]

******    message to minivend-users from Ryan <rps@willconsult.com>     ******

Here's a problem I've been strugling with for almost
a year now.

Sometimes when a customer enters their CC number in,
they make a typo and put a tic (`) (which is right next
to the (1) key) in between the numbers, or sometimes
an equal sign, etc. Minivend does not strip this out,
and infact validates it as a valid card (if the numbers
are OK, etc).

The problem is we have this cart interfaced to an automated
order entry system, and when it processes the orders daily
it bombs when it hits one of these invalid credit cards.

I tried changing the minivend source (file Order.pm, line 909)
by adding this line:
$::Values->{mv_credit_card_info} =~ s/\D+//g;

right before it gets encrypted, but it didn't work. Any ideas?

I'm running MV 3.11.
