I think this will make the whole thing quite complex... You will later have 5 small classes for 5 simple methods. I'm not sure if this will be useful...
german "Bundesbank" publishes and regulary updates a list of algorithms that can be used to verify that a bank code and an account number are a plausible combination the list includes the algorithms in use by german banks (about 90 afair) and which bank uses which algorithm (based on bankcode ranges afaik) and yes, this is *very* usefull as it helps you to detect typos (for real customers) and to identify fake data -- Hartmut Holzgraefe <hartmut@php.net>
