I have an HTML form that disable submit button if both fields have the same for, but I want it the submit button to be hidden instead, please how can I do that?

<form id="my-form" action="" method="post">

<input type="text" id="inp-1" value="">

<input type="text" id="inp-2" value="">

<button type="submit">Signup project</button>

</form>

<script>
/** select the form and both the inputs, select them once and use them as many as needed */
const myForm = document.getElementById('my-form'),
  inp1 = document.getElementById('inp-1'),
  inp2 = document.getElementById('inp-2');

/** 
* listen for "submit" events on the form 
* if the trimmed values of both the inputs is the same then we prevent the form from being submitted
*/
myForm.addEventListener('submit', e => inp1.value.trim() === inp2.value.trim() && e.preventDefault());
</script>

  • Does this answer your question? [JavaScript hide/show element](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6242976/javascript-hide-show-element) – esqew Nov 26 '22 at 16:07
  • No, I'm trying to create a form validator that hide submit button if both input field are using the same sentence – john Nov 26 '22 at 16:11
  • So compare the values of both fields and apply the advice from the linked duplicate to hide the button per your requirement. It’s not exactly clear where you’re getting stuck. – esqew Nov 26 '22 at 16:14
  • Please kindly check the source code to understand my question – john Nov 26 '22 at 16:20

    inp1.addEventListener("input", (e) => {
      const val = e.target.value;
      if (val.length > 1 && inp2.value.length > 1) {
