JQuery - Creating a Password Confirmation form - "Perform: Part 2"

In this part of the task Andrew advices to use these two variables to make the code look better: var $password = $("#password"); var $confirmPassword = $("#confirm_password");

However, once I create them and use to replace the relevant parts of the script, the functionality is gone. Not even the hints disappear when the code is loaded.

Please, check here: http://codepen.io/ivanek1986/pen/hgxoE

Where is the catch? I am hopeless here. Thank you.

in function confirmPasswordEvent() in if statement you have an extra ) after $password, remove that than you should be good.
