Signing Up New Users Part 1 - OR operator not working

I followed the video to exactly, and also tried the code from the sample you can download. Both give me the "Oops Make sure you enter a username, password, and email address!" even if I have all the fields filled in. Has anyone else had this issue. I've racked my brain and don't see anything obvious causing the issue. Here's my code below.

if ([username length] == 0 || [password length] == 0 || [email length] == 0) {
    UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Oops!" message:@"Make sure you enter a username, password and email address!" delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];

    [alertView show];
}

I figured it out. My passwordField in the SignupViewController.h header file was not linked properly to the Interface. The black circle to the left was empty. I deleted that line and relinked it. Once that was complete, everything worked great.

Excellent - glad you got it working! Those can be annoying bugs to figure out.
