Tester #3420 here, reporting in:

Your message for disabled Javascript is really, really weird.

> Either you have Javascript disabled, or you're using an unsupported browser, amigo! That's why you're seeing this old-school credit card input form instead of a fancy new Skeuocard. On the other hand, at least you know it gracefully degrades... > Never tell me the odds! Enable it anyway.

Write like this instead:

> You can still use this form if you have Javascript disabled or an unsupported browser. For a better experience, enable Javascript or upgrade your browser.

- You can have invalid inputs in the month field. "20" or "00" are not months.

- You can put invalid inputs in the year field.

- Tab order is wrong. Go from top left to bottom right.

That message seems to be intended for developers looking at this example site, thus the casualness. If you were to use this on your own site there would be no error message at all.
