+title: "Quick Tips: Javascript Password Verification"

+I just had to write client-side password verification for work at [Verodin](https://verodin.com),
+and it was kinda fun to do. I'll talk through my approach, and hopefully someone down the road searching
+for front-end tips desperately finds this post like a light at the end of a tunnel.
+
+The main idea is to bind to event listeners on the form inputs we care about, so that we can receive those events
+with our password checking functions. As soon as we bind an Object to the event listener, that object has
+"subscribed" to those events and will receive messages every time that event happens.
+
+I will be binding to the [keyup](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/keyup) event to provide the user
+with password verification as they type!
+
+The first step is to setup an html form to work with. I also included a `<p>` tag to hold a meaningful message for the user.
+
+```html
+...
+<p id="message">Choose a password</p>
+<form>
+    <input type="password" id="passwordInput"></input>
+    <input type="password" id="verifyPassword"></input>
+</form>
+...
+
+```
+
+Once we have this form, we can start coding up some Javascript. We need to write a function that binds to the
+`onkeyup` events of both inputs, and then have that function update the page in a meaningful way if the passwords
+don't match. First step is to write the function, then the next step is to write the bindings.
+
+```javascript
+
+// Verify passwords match, update message element
+function verifyPassword() {
+    var passwordInput = document.getElementById("passwordInput");
+    var verifyPassword = document.getElementById("verifyPassword");
+    var message = document.getElementById("message");
+
+    message.textContent = passwordInput.value != verifyPassword.value ? "Not matching" : "Matching";
+}
+
+// Bind to onkeyup for passwordInput and verifyPassword
+document.getElementById("passwordInput").onkeyup = verifyPassword;
+document.getElementById("verifyPassword").onkeyup = verifyPassword;
+```
+
+`verifyPassword` will now receive messages every time the keyup event fires when `passwordInput` or `verifyPassword` are
+in focus (when users are typing in those boxes). The verification function will update the message box accordingly and alert the user
+in real time if the passwords they type match!
+
