Description: ------------ The checkmod32 function needs to be updated to take into account a 9 char pps number Test script: --------------- var_dump( Validate_IE::ppsn('1297188CA') ); Expected result: ---------------- bool(true) Actual result: -------------- bool(false) its failing in checkMod32(). For my own use I have reimplemented (successfully) using algorithm linked from the wikipedia page on Irish PPS's http://pmhsilva.com/2013/02/12/validate-irish-ppsn-with-javascript-jquery/ I feel checkMod32 should be changed to getCheckCode($number_part, $check_code_part) and return the checksum. That way getCheckCode can be used in validation code to inform the user what the checkcode might be, maybe they entered up an I instead of an L. Yes, they could have entered a number wrong, but every little helps.... shane

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been fixed in the latest released version of the package, which you can download at http://pear.php.net/get/ I've pushed out a new release, https://pear.php.net/package/Validate_IE/download/1.1.0a2 which addresses this problem for 9 character lenght PPSN strings; might add your proposed getCheckCode function in a new release soon :-) Thanks for your help with this.
