I'm writing and ASP.net app using vb .net. I need to interact with a credit
card reader. I have one that sits inline with the keyboard. Works great,
except for the fact that no matter what field the user is in on the
transaction page (Name, Address, Credit Card number) the reader will dump
the data at the cursor. So, if the user is in the name field and they
happen to swipe the card, that's where the info goes.
has anyone worked with this type of thing before? Is there a way to disable
the card reader or detect that the info is coming from the reader? So I can
only enable it when the user is in the proper field, or move the data to the
proper field when it's detected... Thanks.

That device is known as a wedge device. It just sends the characters in like
keyboard entry. You will have to look at the input string to determine if
they are putting the information in the wrong field. You might use Jscript
to look at the information which will have the special characters for credit
cards in the string.

Credit card readers, like barcode scanners, act as keyboard on the web page.
So it isn't going to be easy, unless you want to forbid the user from
entering numbers on the other fields.
(If this is the case, you can set up event handler for listening keyboard
event, and jump to the credit card
field if it sees a number)
Oh, wait. If your credit card reader is like my barcode reader, that can be
configured to prepend another sequence
of letter in the beginning of returned string at can act as identifier, then
there may be trickly things you can do......

I know how to build forms with ASP and process user input.
Now i want to take credit card payments via a form.
i will then download the details and process them via our credit card
machine.
do i just create a regular ASP form and use a certificate on the
server to encrypt the data ? ie https://server/getpaymentform.asp
there is nothing special about the form is there ?
it is just the same as the form i have been using for user input.

A friend of mine has a problem with his credit card validation routine
and it is probably a simple thing to solve but I cannot find it.
It has to do with the expiry dates.
What happens is that as each month passes, that month is then not
recognised as being valid, even though the year makes it still valid.
i.e. the number of the month entered has to be bigger than the number
of the current month. Therefor, if it is in august now 09/2005...

If I have an internal company web application is there any way that
the terminals using this application could have credit card readers
where the credit card information gets automatically updated on the
payment page of the application?
Obviously on the client side there is not a lot that can be done...
but possibly the credit card reader could send the information to the
server and cause the web application to refresh...
Any ideas?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
