Example

This example creates a little advert field on the bottom right corner of the screen and sets it to read only.

myWebsite = "development.mtasa.com" -- define the text to be displayed in advert field
function createAdvert( )
    local advert = guiCreateEdit( 0.845, 0.94, 0.15, 0.05, myWebsite, true ) -- create edit field for the advert
    if advert then -- if it was successfully created
        guiEditSetReadOnly( advert, true ) -- make it read only
    end
end
addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement( getThisResource() ), createAdvert )
