Bad move.

> credit_card_number
> credit_card_exp_month
> credit_card_exp_year

> credit_card_exp_month: [value filter=strip name=mv_credit_card_exp_month]
> credit_card_exp_year: [value filter=strip name=mv_credit_card_exp_year]

Not so. What happens when your system gets cracked? Credit card numbers are
there for the taking.
Once again, I will never help you get an unencrypted credit card number on
displayed. And I hope no one else will.
