enterPressed on TextBox's FocusLost not triggering?

So I used this block of code, and it doesn't trigger when I press enter while editing a TextBox. I'm testing this in the actual game, not studio.

local function FocusLost(enterPressed)
    if enterPressed then
    -- stuff
end)

script.Parent.FocusLost:connect(FocusLost)

Have you tried MouseButton1Down:connect(FocusLost) LearnBeginnersLua -2 — 7y

TextBoxes don't even have a mousebuttondown, and No, that wouldn't work, I need the enter key to be pressed. H4X0MSYT 536 — 7y

It may be you forgot the 'end' to close the 'if then' statement.

local function FocusLost(enterPressed)
    if enterPressed then
        --stuff
    end -- You forgot this.
end)

script.Parent.FocusLost:Connect(FocusLost) -- They changed it so it's recommended to use ':Connect' instead of ':connect'.

I hope this helped.

you use Connect(function() I think you made a mistake there, and the ) on the 2nd end. Thanks for the answer anyway, didn't work. H4X0MSYT 536 — 7y

Thanks for the answer anyway, I found the error in remote event naming. I had the 2 scripts on two different duplicate events. H4X0MSYT 536 — 7y
