How To Validate Password And Confirm Password Using Jquery

In this post, we will see how you can validate the password and confirm the password using Jquery.

First, we will create the bootstrap form, then we will use the keyup event in order to validate the password and confirm the password in jquery.

Let’s get started.

Step 1: Include bootstrap and jquery

First I will include the bootstrap and jquery.

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport"
          content="width=device-width, user-scalable=no, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge">
    <title>Validate Jquery Password and confirm password</title>

    <link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.0.2/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

</head>
<body>



<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

</body>
</html>

Step 2: Add the form

Then in the body tag, I have created the Bootstrap form in which I have email, password and confirm password fields. Then I have given id="password" to the password field and id="confirmpassword" to the confirm password field.

I have also added div with confirm-message class so that we can show success or error message based on the input in password and confirm password fields.

<h3 class="text-center mt-5">Validate Jquery Password and confirm password</h3>


<div class="container">
    <div class="row justify-content-center mt-5">
        <div class="col-md-4">
            <div class="mb-3">
                <label for="exampleInputEmail1" class="form-label">Email address</label>
                <input type="email" class="form-control" id="exampleInputEmail1" aria-describedby="emailHelp">
                <div id="emailHelp" class="form-text">We'll never share your email with anyone else.</div>
            </div>
            <div class="mb-3">
                <label for="password" class="form-label">Password</label>
                <input type="password" class="form-control" id="password">

            </div>
            <div class="mb-3">
                <label for="confirmpassword" class="form-label">Confirm Password</label>
                <input type="password" class="form-control" id="confirmpassword">
                <div class="form-text confirm-message"></div>
            </div>

            <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Step 3: Add the jquery code

Then I have added the jquery code. In the following code, first we added keyup event on the password field and confirmpassword field.

After that, I am removing the error-message and success-message class from confirm-message as when we key is pressed there should be no classes.

Then I am getting values of password and confirmpassword field.

After that, we have checking password field, if its empty, we are adding “Password Field cannot be empty” text to the confirm-message and adding the error-message to it.

Same we are doing for the confirmpassword .

After that, we are checking if password and confirmpassword are same, then we are adding “Password Match!” text and success-message class to the confirm-message div.

If they are not the same, we are adding “Password Doesn’t Match!” text and adding error-message class to the confirm-message.

<script>
    $('#password, #confirmpassword').on('keyup', function(){

        $('.confirm-message').removeClass('success-message').removeClass('error-message');

        let password=$('#password').val();
        let confirm_password=$('#confirmpassword').val();

        if(password===""){
            $('.confirm-message').text("Password Field cannot be empty").addClass('error-message');
        }
        else if(confirm_password===""){
            $('.confirm-message').text("Confirm Password Field cannot be empty").addClass('error-message');
        }
        else if(confirm_password===password)
        {
            $('.confirm-message').text('Password Match!').addClass('success-message');
        }
        else{
            $('.confirm-message').text("Password Doesn't Match!").addClass('error-message');
        }

    });
</script>

Step 4: Add some CSS

To add the some colors I am adding some CSS to the success-message and error-message class.


    <style>
        .success-message{
            color:green
        }
        .error-message{
            color:red;
        }
    </style>

Here is what the final code will look like:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport"
          content="width=device-width, user-scalable=no, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge">
    <title>Validate Jquery Password and confirm password</title>

    <link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.0.2/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

    <style>
        .success-message{
            color:green
        }
        .error-message{
            color:red;
        }
    </style>

</head>
<body>

<form>

    <h3 class="text-center mt-5">Validate Jquery Password and confirm password</h3>


    <div class="container">
        <div class="row justify-content-center mt-5">
            <div class="col-md-4">
                <div class="mb-3">
                    <label for="exampleInputEmail1" class="form-label">Email address</label>
                    <input type="email" class="form-control" id="exampleInputEmail1" aria-describedby="emailHelp">
                    <div id="emailHelp" class="form-text">We'll never share your email with anyone else.</div>
                </div>
                <div class="mb-3">
                    <label for="password" class="form-label">Password</label>
                    <input type="password" class="form-control" id="password">

                </div>
                <div class="mb-3">
                    <label for="confirmpassword" class="form-label">Confirm Password</label>
                    <input type="password" class="form-control" id="confirmpassword">
                    <div class="form-text confirm-message"></div>
                </div>

                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

</form>

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
    $('#password, #confirmpassword').on('keyup', function(){

        $('.confirm-message').removeClass('success-message').removeClass('error-message');

        let password=$('#password').val();
        let confirm_password=$('#confirmpassword').val();

        if(password===""){
            $('.confirm-message').text("Password Field cannot be empty").addClass('error-message');
        }
        else if(confirm_password===""){
            $('.confirm-message').text("Confirm Password Field cannot be empty").addClass('error-message');
        }
        else if(confirm_password===password)
        {
            $('.confirm-message').text('Password Match!').addClass('success-message');
        }
        else{
            $('.confirm-message').text("Password Doesn't Match!").addClass('error-message');
        }

    });
</script>
</body>
</html>
