1,732 PointsHow do to the code challenge for JQuery Basics Task 2 of 2?
I enter the correct code but it is not going through. If my code is not correct, please fix it.
//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() {
return $username.val().length > 0;
}
function isPasswordValid() {
return $password.val().length > 8;
}
function arePasswordsMatching() {
return $password.val() === $confirmPassword.val();
}
function canSubmit() {
return isPasswordValid() arePasswordsMatching() isUsernamePresent();
}
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();

I think you need to add this to your code.
function canSubmit() {
return isPasswordValid() && arePasswordsMatching() && isUsernamePresent();
}

You forgot the &&
function canSubmit() {
return isPasswordValid() && arePasswordsMatching() && isUsernamePresent();
}

Courses Plus Student 16,352 PointsA return statement can only return one thing. In this challenge, the function canSubmit()
will return either true or false by checking the return values from each of the three functions - as one statement. You'll need to add double ampersands &&
between the functions for the return statement to work.
