getElementData problem

[..:D&G:..]

Hello guys, I keep getting an error when I want to get an element data of the player that clicks a button

function checkShipment(button, state, thePlayer) 
local level = getElementData(thePlayer, "level") 
    if (source==bCheck) and (button=="left") then 
  
.................................. 

I keep getting the error which says that the script gets the string "left", as the script gets the element data of the button and not the player. Any ideas how to fix it?

function checkShipment(button, state, thePlayer) 
local level = getElementData(thePlayer, "level") 
    if (thePlayer == bCheck ) and (thePlayer == left) then

Now it says it gets the number 660.

function checkShipment(button, state, thePlayer) 
local level = getElementData(thePlayer, "level") 
   if (source==bCheck) then 
    if (button ~= "left" or state ~= "down") then return end 
  
-- < your code here >  
  
end  
end
