You can add an id <input id="pw" type="password"> 

$('#pw').val().length;

or You can add a class <input class="pw" type="password"> 

$('.pw').val().length;

else keep it as it is and you can get the length using jquery

$('#registerForm input[type="password"]').val().length;

Hope this will help you out. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks

val is a function, so you need to write val():

$('#registerForm input[type="password"]').val().length
