Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime. I think its rather easy to judge someone's knowledge of scripting based on the help they ask for, in this case I'd say the OP is rather new to the engine (no offense). If the people who try to help this person do nothing more than post a corrected version of the script without explaining what they did and how they got there, how is the person having the problem supposed to learn?

Simply saying "use this function" won't usually help someone who doesn't understand the basics of scripting. Not knowing what boolean, float, or integer values are, the organization of functions/callbacks, or even what a string is, is common for people new to the scripting.

I know this thread isn't the best example of it, but I find it does happen rather often.
True that, when i helped him i explained everything in detail for him in a chat.

Hi.
