No, since you need MTA to run it.

Maybe I'm just stupid right now, but if another player than the one who created the teleporter steps into it and triggers the 'Script_onPlayerClick' Function, will it not beam the owner of the teleporter to the destination?

I assume you mean the onMarkerHit event, not the onPlayerClick event.

Have a look at the function that warps you:
[lua]setElementPosition ( player, x, y, z )[/lua]

And the event function itself:
[lua]function Script_onMarkerHit ( player )[/lua]

This means it'll warp whoever triggered the event.

I thought only the creator of the warper should be teleported.

where I can get LUA soft? plz give me a link to a needed version :!:

You don't need any software besides an ordinary text-editor to write Lua. To run scripts you can use a standalone interpeter. But of course you won't be able to test MTA related Lua scripts without MTA.
