I can’t seem to get the button component here to enable after the input fields are filled, it simply starts disabled and then stays that way.
export default function Page() {
const [newPassword, setNewPassword] = useState('');
const [confirmPassword, setConfirmPassword] = useState('');
const [isButtonDisabled, setIsButtonDisabled] = useState(true);
useEffect(() => {
setIsButtonDisabled(newPassword === '' || confirmPassword === '');
}, [newPassword, confirmPassword])
return (
<>
<Paper>
<form
onSubmit={(e) => {
e.preventDefault();
if (newPassword === confirmPassword) {
console.log('Passwords match. Submitting form...');
} else {
console.log('Passwords do not match. Please try again.');
}
}}
className="mb-0 mt-6 mb-6 space-y-4 rounded-lg p-4 shadow-lg sm:p-6 lg:p-8 bg-white"
>
<div className="text-center sm:text-left">
<h1 className="text-2xl font-bold text-blue-900 sm:text-3xl">New Password</h1>
</div>
<div className="mb-4">
<Input
type="password"
title="Enter New Password"
value={newPassword}
onChange={(e) => {
setNewPassword(e.target.value);
}}
/>
</div>
<div className="mb-6">
<Input
type="password"
title="Confirm Password"
value={confirmPassword}
onChange={(e) => {
setConfirmPassword(e.target.value);
}}
/>
</div>
<div className="flex flex-col items-left space-y-4">
<Button type="submit" disabled={isButtonDisabled} >
Send
</Button>
</div>
</form>
<p className="text-center mt-6 text-gray-500 text-xs">© 2024 Compass Center</p>
</Paper>
</>
);
}
I changed my code around to utilize useEffect, thinking that would solve the issue, but it still does not work.

you did not pay attention to this condition
setIsButtonDisabled(newPassword === ” || confirmPassword === ” || newPassword !== confirmPassword);
You set this in the useEffect, which monitors the two variables:
So if one of the two variables changes the
setIsButtonDisabled
is triggered.The problem is that if the
newPassword
is empty ” or theconfirmPassword
is empty ” the button is disabled.But if they are not empty strings the button is abled.
