String.lower() issue

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

im trying to match a certain player’s name with a lowercase version of their name in a textbox.

example:

local textBox = script.Parent
local textboxName = string.lower(textBox.Text) --The textbox has the name typed in it.

Now, how would I match a player from game.Players with textboxName?

for i,v in pairs(game.Players:GetPlayers()) do
    local name = string.lower(v.Name)
    if name == textboxName then
        -- Do what you want to do.
    end
end

Make sure to put that code in a remote event and send the name to the server from the client.
