is handler removed after delete element?

[IIYAMA]

  
local confirmButton = guiCreateButton(5, 5, 90, 70, "SPAWN!", false, spawnConfirmWindow) 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", confirmButton, spawnClientPlayer) 
destroyElement(confirmButton) 
  

Will the handler still be there?

The handler will be removed.

[IIYAMA]

Thank you!

That was a fast answer

function destroyElement(element) 
element = nil  
end 
  

[DiSaMe]

  
  
function destroyElement(element) 
element = nil  
end 
  

Makes no sense. Replaces destroyElement by a function which sets its own local variable to nil, therefore doing absolutely nothing.

--- if you need destroy 
removeEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", confirmButton, spawnClientPlayer) -- to remove this event 
destroyElement(confirmButton) -- then destroy element

Now I get again two differed answers from two experienced posters...........

(not me "Experienced"...)

If I delete the element that is handled and after that I handle again, there won't be any errors.

Is the handler gone from the previous element?

grrrr I hate it when I can't see what happens.....

yes you should remove this handler then destroy element to prevent any errors

ok, either way the event handler would be destroyed, because for one, the element wouldn't exist anymore thus the event handler would be no use and wouldn't be triggered, and even if you remove the event handler, I think it would save some ram, but either way the event handler would be destroyed.
