How to link my Gui button to another GUI Button?

Jaysds1 · May 18, 2011

I need help on how to create a link from a button to another Gui.

Example:

If the person clicks on register button and goes on to the register gui.

Castillo · May 18, 2011

function onClick() 
guiSetVisible(myWindow,true) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",yourButtonElement,onClick,false)

Do you mean that?

Jaysds1 · May 19, 2011

No

Say I was a new member and I was trying to register my account, right now it's on the Login GUI and if I clicked the Register Button on the Login GUI, I want it to go to the register Gui then the login after.

Woot? i gave you the code to do that... , as far as i understand you want to show up the register window when he click's on some button called "Register", right?

Post your full code here.

When people register on Register GUI and it closes and go to the Login Gui and login the gui is still shown.

How do you put it down too?

I said, post the code.

it didn't work.

This time it removed the cursor when it went back on to the Login GUI.

Post the server side part.

As far as I understand, you want to show the Login window after register, right? if so, that should work fine.

Jaysds1 · May 19, 2011

now I'm trying to change something in here and it's the server-side

If a person all ready has and account and someone else want's it.

How do you stop them from taking the reserved Username?
