Question

On line 11 in app.js, implement the isUsernamePresent function. Return true if the username length is greater than 0.

I think my code is right, but I keep getting bummer for some reason. Can anyone help me?

js/app.js

//Problem: Hints are shown even when form is valid
//Solution: Hide and show them at appropriate times
var $password = $("#password");
var $confirmPassword = $("#confirm_password");
var $username = $("#username");

//Hide hints
$("form span").hide();

function isUsernamePresent() {
function isUsernamePresent() { 
  if ( $username.val().length > 0){ return true; } }
}

function isPasswordValid() {
  return $password.val().length > 8;
}

function arePasswordsMatching() {
  return $password.val() === $confirmPassword.val();
}

function canSubmit() {
  return isPasswordValid() && arePasswordsMatching();
}

function passwordEvent(){
    //Find out if password is valid  
    if(isPasswordValid()) {
      //Hide hint if valid
      $password.next().hide();
    } else {
      //else show hint
      $password.next().show();
    }
}

function confirmPasswordEvent() {
  //Find out if password and confirmation match
  if(arePasswordsMatching()) {
    //Hide hint if match
    $confirmPassword.next().hide();
  } else {
    //else show hint 
    $confirmPassword.next().show();
  }
}

function enableSubmitEvent() {
  $("#submit").prop("disabled", !canSubmit());
}


function usernameEvent() {
  if(isUsernamePresent()) {
    $username.next().hide();
  } else {
    $username.next().show();
  } 
}

//When event happens on password input
$password.focus(passwordEvent).keyup(passwordEvent).keyup(confirmPasswordEvent).keyup(enableSubmitEvent);

//When event happens on confirmation input
$confirmPassword.focus(confirmPasswordEvent).keyup(confirmPasswordEvent).keyup(enableSubmitEvent);

$username.focus(usernameEvent).keyup(usernameEvent).keyup(enableSubmitEvent);

enableSubmitEvent();

Hi Mizuho,

It seems you have duplicated the function definition

function isUsernamePresent() {
function isUsernamePresent() { 
  if ( $username.val().length > 0){ return true; } }
}

just remove one

function isUsernamePresent() { 
  if ( $username.val().length > 0){ return true; } 
}
