JQuery Basics: Creating a Password Confirmation Form - Submit button remains disabled when passwords are valid...

var $password = $("#password");
var $confirmPassword = $("#confirm_password");
// Hide hints
$("form span").hide();

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());
}

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

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

enableSubmitEvent();
