I need help concerning my login panel. I scripted it right and according to the MTA website tutorial. But when I join the server it the login panel doesn't show up, and I am left with black screen. 

The code is up there, something wrong with it?

Here's how it's defined in meta.xml:

<meta>
  <info author="Someguy" type="gamemode" name="Testing server" description="A server for testing scripts" />
  <script src="client/login_gui.lua" type="client" />
</meta>

It didn't work either. I don't know what's wrong.

You should revise wiki functions:

outputChatBox not outputChatbox !!!!!!

guiCreateEdit not guicreateEdit !!!!!!

you should use the syntax
