My project does not seem to work, from the beginning $("form span").hide(); does not hide the span elements any ideas?

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

is your code $("form span").hide(); on the same line as your comment if so it will not read. put them on separate lines. hope that helps if not post your code so we can see what is exactly going on.

I know this is 2 months old but I was having the same issue. I downloaded the project files to follow along and noticed the jquery link was an older version than the one I was using in another project. I updated the link to the current one at http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js and that solved my problem of the span not hiding. I don't know if they've depreciated 1.11.0 but that was the problem. Hope that helps anybody else having the same issues.
