[HELP] guiCreateEdit

[Tekken]

Hi, i need some help with GUI i need to get data from an edit box and pass it to server, and i don't know how

My code:

Clinet

  
function setPanel() 
     window = guiCreateWindow(472, 206, 288, 329, "Panel", false) 
     button = guiCreateButton(162, 221, 116, 44, "Proceed", false, window) 
     edit = guiCreateEdit(29, 69, 107, 34, "", false,window) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot,setPanel) 
  
addEventHandler ( "onClientGUIClick", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), 
function() 
    if (source == button) then 
        triggerServerEvent("onClientProceedToRecover", localPlayer) 
    end 
end 
)

You need to add the event server-side and handle it.

addEvent("onClientProceedToRecover", true) 
addEventHandler("onClientProceedToRecover", root, function() 
-- code 
end) 

[Addlibs]

Start off by getting the edit box's input via guiGetText(edit)

triggerServerEvent("onClientProceedToRecover", localPlayer, guiGetText(edit))

I got this error : recovergui-system\recover_s.lua:16: Bad argument @ 'outputChatBox' [Expected element at argument 2, got string 'mihayy58']

My code:

Server

function recoverPasswordFromIdAndAccount(accname, Id, thePass) 
    local theAccount = getAccount(accname) 
    if theAccount then 
        local theIDinAcc = getAccountData(theAccount, "AccID") 
        if theIDinAcc then 
            if tonumber(Id) == theIDinAcc then

triggerServerEvent provides a sends to the server the client (element) that triggered the event in the form of the 'client' variable. Replace your 'source' with 'client' in order to get it working properly.

[Tekken]

Still get the same error.

[Addlibs]

The error message states you push a string instead of an element for the 2nd parameter (the player who shall receive the chatbox message). However, it's impossible that 'client' or 'source' contain a string, or anything else other than an element value.

My guess is that you haven't corrected the code still, maybe you saved it in the wrong place?

Look:

GUIEditor = { 
    button = {}, 
    window = {}, 
    label = {}, 
    edit = {}

        guiWindowSetMovable(GUIEditor.window[1], true) 
        guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false) 
        guiWindowSetSizable(GUIEditor.window[1], false) 
  
        GUIEditor.button[1] = guiCreateButton(162, 221, 116, 44, "Proceed", false, GUIEditor.window[1]) 
        guiSetFont(GUIEditor.button[1], "default-bold-small") 
        guiSetProperty(GUIEditor.button[1], "NormalTextColour", "FF48FF00") 
        GUIEditor.button[2] = guiCreateButton(162, 271, 116, 44, "Close", false, GUIEditor.window[1]) 
        guiSetFont(GUIEditor.button[2], "default-bold-small") 
        guiSetProperty(GUIEditor.button[2], "NormalTextColour", "FFFF0000") 
        GUIEditor.edit[1] = guiCreateEdit(29, 69, 107, 34, "", false, GUIEditor.window[1])

You were correct.
