Why won't this surface GUI button work when clicked?

I'm trying to make a computer with a clickable home button, but when clicked nothing happens.

local button = script.Parent

button.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
    script.Parent.Parent.StaertMenu2.Visible = true
    script.Parent.Parent.StarMenu.Visible = true
    script.Parent.Parent.StartMenu.Log.Visible = true
end)

I'm a bit of a noob at scripting, so please go easy on me!

It should work, but you spelled "StartMenu" a different way on every line it was mentioned "StaertMenu2" "StarMenu" "StartMenu"

The output window is your friend, open that in the view tab, it'll tell you what's going wrong!

It still won't work, does it have something to do with it being a surfaceGUI? CaptainAlien132 225 — 5y

Oh... Whenever I hover over it my mouse doesn't pick it up that it's there CaptainAlien132 225 — 5y

You may have something invisible covering your screen User#1007 6 — 5y

I found the reason why, it was a union and each corner was blocked by the weird invisible part that unions create. But now It works! Also, thanks for pointing out that I misspelled things, I was in a hurry. CaptainAlien132 225 — 5y

Try this:

local button = script.Parent

button.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
    script.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("StaertMenu2").Visible = true
    script.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("StarMenu").Visible = true
    script.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("StartMenu").Log.Visible = true
end)

Hope this worked for you! If it works for you accept my answer.

like i said above... The mouse isn't picking the button up so this script is literally useless for me CaptainAlien132 225 — 5y
