I'm having issues where my JavaScript code is not counting the characters that is being input and I'm at a lost. Any ideas?

HTML:

<script src="https://ajaxgoogleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.2.4/jquery.min.js"></script>

<label for="studentName">Student name:</label>
<textarea id="studentName" cols="40" rows"3"></textarea><br>
<p id="stringLength">0</p>

JavaScript:

var $textareaElement = $("#studentName");

function textSize(event) 
 $("#stringLength").text($textareaElement.val().length);


/* Your solution goes here */
$(document).ready(function () 

$("#studentName").focus(function () 

$("#stringLength").html($(this).val().length);

);

);

focus will fire when the element gains focus. keyup is what you're looking for if you want to count characters as user types them into the input.
