Modifying Attributes

Hi There

I am sort of following along with Andrew Chalkley on the JQuery course and I am utilising his ideas on my own site.

I have an submit button with a class of submit

and I am using the following code to disable the submit button

<script>
    var $submit = $("input.submit");
    function requiredFilledIn(){
        if(true) $submit.attr("disabled","disabled");
        else $submit.removeAttr("disabled");
    }

    $(input).keyup(function(){
        // Check the required fields
        requiredFilledIn();
    });

    $('#email').keyup(function(){
        // This will check for a valid email

    });
    requiredFilledIn();
</script>

However it does not seem to be having any effect. Can someone tell me where I am going wrong please.

Take a look at your opening and closing brackets within the function.

You should have curly braces around the result of each conditional.
