Force user to fill all fields before enabling form submit

Question

I have a form containing various fields.

See jsFiddle demo.

My aim is to enable the submit button only when the user has filled in all fields.

Why don't you use jquery validate . It's a good plugin .

The logic works like, any change in the form it will check the form is valid or not. And also using the errorplacement function it will disable the default error message also.

$().ready(function() {
    // validate signup form on keyup and submit
    $("#contactForm").validate({
        rules: {
            title: "required",
            description: {
                required: true
            },
            newtag: {
                required: true
            },
            category: {
                required: true
            }
        },
        errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
            return true;
        },
        submitHandler: function() {


        }
    });


    $('#contactForm').change(function() {
        if ($("#contactForm").valid()) {
            $("#subnewtide").removeAttr("disabled");
        }
    });

});
