IBAN Validation check

Based on the work of http://toms-cafe.de/iban/iban.js I have developed my version of IBAN check.

You can modify the country support by modifying the variable CODE_LENGTHS.

Here is my implementation:

function alertValidIBAN(iban) {
    alert(isValidIBANNumber(iban));
}

/*
 * Returns 1 if the IBAN is valid 
 * Returns FALSE if the IBAN's length is not as should be (for CY the IBAN Should be 28 chars long starting with CY )
 * Returns any other number (checksum) when the IBAN is invalid (check digits do not match)
 */
function isValidIBANNumber(input) {
    var CODE_LENGTHS = {
        AD: 24, AE: 23, AT: 20, AZ: 28, BA: 20, BE: 16, BG: 22, BH: 22, BR: 29,

    };
    var iban = String(input).toUpperCase().replace(/[^A-Z0-9]/g, ''), // keep only alphanumeric characters
            code = iban.match(/^([A-Z]{2})(\d{2})([A-Z\d]+)$/), // match and capture (1) the country code, (2) the check digits, and (3) the rest
            digits;
    // check syntax and length
    if (!code || iban.length !== CODE_LENGTHS[code[1]]) {
        return false;
    }
    // rearrange country code and check digits, and convert chars to ints
    digits = (code[3] + code[1] + code[2]).replace(/[A-Z]/g, function (letter) {
        return letter.charCodeAt(0) - 55;
    });
    // final check
    return mod97(digits);
}

function mod97(string) {
    var checksum = string.slice(0, 2), fragment;
    for (var offset = 2; offset < string.length; offset += 7) {
        fragment = String(checksum) + string.substring(offset, offset + 7);
        checksum = parseInt(fragment, 10) % 97;
    }
    return checksum;
}
input { width:300px; }
Enter IBAN 
<input type="test" id="iban"/>
<button onclick="alertValidIBAN(null);">check IBAN</button>
