Hi! Thank you for your votings, I requested a PEAR account. Stephan Schmidt wrote: > I think now it's ready to release.

I will write a short documentation in a seperate file, including the example I already showed you. I think it would be the best to declare the first release as "beta", or?

I already changed the account parameters in one account array, did you mean that with "options"? See http://www.web-gear.com/test/dta/0.71/Dta.phps (example: http://www.web-gear.com/test/dta/0.71/test.phps ) If I did not understand this right, please explain further, please. Thank you!

I was at the bank yesterday, of course there were no consultants with entire knowledge available. But it seems not to be possible to handle with IBAN account numbers in the DTA format. In the DTAZV format, this is possible, and it would also be TECHNICALLY possible to create international DEBITS with that. But in practice this isn't very reasonable because in other lands the rights are completly different, especially the time period after that a debit can be cancelled by the customer. So it's very insecure for the merchant. So maybe in future the DTA class could be extended to create DTAZV files (e.g. to handle with international credits), but this is a very new area for the banks, too, and so probably it would be better to wait a little how this is evolving. The DTA format is very pupolar, and perhaps the DTAZV become this, too. Regards, Hermann
