I don't suppose you are able to point us to documentation where SSNs
have changed checksums; and derive others which *should* be valid?

Description:
------------
Hi,



I have just downloaded and installed Validate_US. I have only been in
the US for 2 years and my SSN is returned as Invalid". I tried my wife's
SSN using the same format and it returned "Valid".



I believe this has to do with the later SSNs so I thought that I had
better draw this to your attention so that it can be caught before it is
released from beta and starts to affect people's scripts.



I have not given my SSN in the code example for security reasons, but
please let me know if I can be of further assistance.



Regards,

Ken.

Test script:
---------------
include_once 'Validate/us.php';



$validate = new Validate_US();



echo $validate->ssn("xxx-xx-xxxx") ? "Valid SSN<br />" : "Invalid SSN<br
/>";



Expected result:
----------------
"Valid SSN" should be displayed.

Actual result:
--------------
"Invalid SSN" is displayed.
