ERRORS: attempt to cancatenate local 'language' ( a boolean value)

local language_handler = function(player,_,language,...) 
    local text = table.concat({...}," ") 
    local language = guiComboBoxGetItemText(guiComboBoxGetSelected(LanguageWindow)) 
    outputChatBox("["..language.."] "..getPlayerName(localPlayer)..": "..text,root,255,255,255,true) 
end 
addCommandHandler("language",language_handler) 
bindKey("l","down","chatbox","language")

string guiComboBoxGetItemText ( element comboBox, int itemId ) 

You have to put itemId.

local language_handler = function(player,_,...) 
    local text = table.concat({...}," ") 
    local language = guiComboBoxGetItemText(LanguageWindow,guiComboBoxGetSelected(LanguageWindow)) 
    outputChatBox("["..language.."] "..getPlayerName(localPlayer)..": "..text,root,255,255,255,true) 
end 
addCommandHandler("language",language_handler) 
bindKey("l","down","chatbox","language")

Thx, can you guys help with 2 more things ? When i press l and talk, it only says [ Language ] #Twerky : and how do i determine, if a player has selected a certain language, and he talks in chat, then the message will only show for players who have selected that same language?

When player selects language in combobox set to him data, like this

setElementData ( localPlayer, "language", "some lang" ) 

And then

local language_handler = function(player,_,...) 
    local text = table.concat({...}," ") 
    local language = guiComboBoxGetItemText(LanguageWindow,guiComboBoxGetSelected(LanguageWindow)) 
    for _,v in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
        if ( getElementData ( v, "language" ) == language ) then 
            outputChatBox("["..language.."] "..getPlayerName(localPlayer)..": "..text,v,255,255,255,true) 
        end 
    end 
end 
addCommandHandler("language",language_handler) 
bindKey("l","down","chatbox","language") 

But wait, this function should be serverside, becouse in clientside you can't set to him would be visible message.
