This example outputs to chatbox the minimum and the maximum coords of an element. If the element doesn't exist or doesn't have such coords, it outputs "false". 

function minMaxOutput( element )
    x0, y0, z0, x1, y1, z1 = getElementBoundingBox ( element )
    if ( x0 ) then
        outputChatBox( "The coords are: " .. x0 .. ", " .. y0 .. ", " .. z0 .. ", " .. x1 .. ", " .. y1 .. ", " .. z1 )
    else
        outputChatBox( "false" )
    end
end
