I've been googling to get an answer, but i couldn't find what i want. Not sure if i typed my question wrong, but i'll try to explain.
What i'm looking to achieve is : Once the user types, i want my script to run, so my button enables when the 2 passwords are equal to eachother. As soon as the passwords are equal to eachother, the button will be enabled. If not, the button will be disabled.
function test123() {
var pw1 = $('#pw1').val();
var pw2 = $('#pw2').val();
if (pw1 == pw2) {
console.log('Valid!');
} else {
console.log('Not valid!');
}
}
<div id='register-div'>
<form method='POST' action='javascript:test123()'>
<input name='username' type='text' placeholder='username'>
<input id='pw1' name='password' type='password' placeholder='password'>
<input id='pw2' name='password2' type='password'
placeholder='password_again'>
<button type='submit'><a> REGISTER </a></button>
</form>
</div>

$('button').prop('disabled', true)
$('input.pass').on('input', function() {
var pw1 = $('#pw1').val()
var pw2 = $('#pw2').val()
if (pw1 == pw2) {
$('button').prop('disabled', false)
} else {
$('button').prop('disabled', true)
}
})
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id='register-div'>
<form method='POST' action='javascript:test123()'>
<input name='username' type='text' placeholder='username'>
<input class="pass" id='pw1' name='password' type='password' placeholder='password'>
<input class="pass" id='pw2' name='password2' type='password' placeholder='password_again'>

To achieve this you can bind an input
event to the password fields using unobtrusive JS. You can then enable/disable the button if the values match using prop('disabled')
, like this:
$('#pw1, #pw2').on('input', function() {
var pw1 = $('#pw1').val();
var pw2 = $('#pw2').val();
$('button').prop('disabled', pw1 != pw2);
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="register-div">
<form method="POST">
<input name="username" type="text" placeholder="username">
<input id="pw1" name="password" type="password" placeholder="password">
<input id="pw2" name="password2" type="password" placeholder="password_again">
<button type="submit" disabled="true">REGISTER</button>
</form>
</div>
Also note that I removed the <a>
element you placed inside the <button>
, as that is not valid HTML.

Check this code:
function test123() {
var pw1 = $('#pw1').val();
var pw2 = $('#pw2').val();
if (pw1 == pw2) {
document.getElementById("submit_btn").disabled = false;
} else {
document.getElementById("submit_btn").disabled = true;
}
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id='register-div'>
<form method='POST' action='javascript:test123()'>
<input name='username' type='text' placeholder='username'>
<input id='pw1' name='password' type='password' placeholder='password'>
<input id='pw2' name='password2' type='password'
placeholder='password_again' onkeyup='test123()'>
<button type='submit' id='submit_btn' disabled><a> REGISTER </a></button>
</form>
</div>

$('#pw1,#pw2').keyup( function() {
test123();
});
function test123() {
var pw1 = $('#pw1').val(),
pw2 = $('#pw2').val();
if (pw1 == pw2) {
$('button').prop('disabled',false)
} else {
$('button').prop('disabled',true)
}
}
