Message to lower.

[DjMixCuma]

Hi!

I have trouble, because i added this to my code:

message:lower() 

and not working, and after i added:

string.lower(""..message.."") 

How to change letters in message to lower?

Well string.lower doesn't working with unicode. Also your variable message is string? Are you sure?

Check please via this function.

addEventHandler("onPlayerChat", getRootElement(), function(message, messageType) 
    for index, word in ipairs(bannedWords) do 
        if (message:find(word, 0)) then 
            tostring(message):lower() 
            outputChatBox("Player "..getPlayerName(source).." kicked! Reason: Bad Word!", root, 255, 255, 255, true) 
        end 
    end 
end)

    end 
end) 

tostring(message):lower() 

What you are trying to do? You just convert variable message to lower string and doing nothing with result.

Also your variable 'bannedWords' is defined?

You should either store "lower" method's result in "message" again or use it directly in outputChatBox.

As already said, you're only calling a method which returns the string with lower characters, it doesn't store the new value in the variable.

DjMixCuma, I guess you are don't understand what you are doing. I give you advise, you need learn lua.
