why it dont work?

function checkifcorrectpw (pw) 
for i = 32, 255, 1 do 
    if i < 49 or i > 57 and i < 65 or i > 95 and i < 97 or i > 122 then 
        if string.find (pw, string.char (i), 1, true) then 
            break    
            return true 
        elseif  i == 255 and not string.find (pw, string.char (i), 1, true) then 
            return false 
        end 
    end 
end 
end

'break' keyword escapes the loop at the point it's reached, preventing the code execution from reaching the 'return true' line.

In other words you just have to swap and flip break with return true or simply remove 'break' since its not necessary due to the return..

Dont work error: Loaddin script failed ... end expected ( to close if at 6) near break?

The 'break' keyword is useless in this case, 'return' keyword already stops the function.
