API Documentation

set ccfs = new CreditCardFraudDetection

This creates a new CreditCardFraudDetection object. set is required since it is an object

ccfs.isSecure

If isSecure is set to 0 then it uses regular HTTP. If isSecure is set to 1 then it uses Secure HTTPS.

ccfs.input(dictionary)

Takes a dictionary object and uses it as input for the server. See http://dev.maxmind.com/minfraud for details on input fields.

ccfs.query()

Queries the server with the fields passed to the input method and stores the output.

set dictionary = ccfs.output()

Returns the output from the server as a dictionary object. set is required since it is an object. See http://dev.maxmind.com/minfraud for details on output fields.

Secure HTTPS

This script uses Microsoft's Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP which has full support for SSL. SSL is enabled by default. You may disable it by setting:

ccfs.isSecure = 0

where ccfs is the CreditCardFraudDetection object.

Error Handling

Errors will be placed into a string value in the output dictionary object which can then be checked before processing the returned data.

Example:

    Dim ret
    Set ret = ccfs.output()
    if(ret.Item("err") <> "") then
        'handle error here
    else
        'Process data
    end if

A quick way to test the error handler is to modify the host list (Unable to find host), web-service URO (404 file not found or Invalid data returned), or set the timeout (Connection timed out) to a very low value (i.e. 0.01 seconds).
