[HELP] On button clicked

[..:D&G:..]

Hello, I have a script that pops up a window with help. I also have other script that shows information about the server. I made a button for the help script, when clicked the window should close and the info script should acctivate.

Button:

local butAjutor = guiCreateButton(601, 28, 133, 33, "Ajutor De Început", false, myWindow) 

I want the button to execute this: - This currently works on a command

function toggleHelp( thePlayer, commandName ) 

The toggleHelp function is on server side in a script, and the button is on client side on another script.. How do I connect this 2?

addEvent 
addEventHandler 
triggerServerEvent 

[..:D&G:..]

This confuses me a bit, where do I put the name of the button? ''butAjutor''

triggerServerEvent ( "showHelp", getLocalPlayer( ), butAjutor, true )

Using :

onClientGUIClick Event.

Can you make it for me please, its the first time I see/use this code And the example from WIKI confuses..

addEventHandler ( "onClientGUIClick", butAjutor, 
    function ( ) 
        outputChatBox ( "THE BUTTON WAS CLICKED!" ) 
    end 
    ,false 
) 

That'll output a chatbox message when you click that button.

The function that I want to call is in another resource, that won't work..

Why it won't work? you can export the function from one resource and use it in another.

addEventHandler ( "onClientGUIClick", butAjutor, 
    function ( ) 
        outputChatBox ( "THE BUTTON WAS CLICKED!" ) 
    end 
    ,false 
) 

That'll output a chatbox message when you click that button.

Copy that in Clientside script.

function toggleHelp( thePlayer, commandName )

I think this going to work:

callServerFunction(":ResourceName/Function")

This is what I tried to make, but only the outputChatBox works

addEventHandler ( "onClientGUIClick", butAjutor, 
    function ( ) 
        outputChatBox ( "THE BUTTON WAS CLICKED!" ) 
        triggerServerEvent("onClientCallsServerFunction", help , toggleHelp) 
    end 
    ,false 
)

This is what I tried to make, but only the outputChatBox works

addEventHandler ( "onClientGUIClick", butAjutor, 
    function ( ) 
        outputChatBox ( "THE BUTTON WAS CLICKED!" ) 
        triggerServerEvent("onClientCallsServerFunction", help , toggleHelp) 
    end 
    ,false 
) 

you must add the event you maked triggered to server side

+

you'r trigger must be like this

triggerServerEvent("onClientCallsServerFunction", localPlayer)

and in server side :

addEvent("onClientCallsServerFunction",true)
addEventHandler("onClientCallsServerFunction",getRootElement( ),
function ()
-------- your code
end
