This code creates a grid list and fills it with the names of the connected players. When the user selects an item, its text (the player name) will be output in the chat box. 

addEventHandler('onClientResourceStart', resourceRoot, function()
    local playerList = guiCreateGridList(0.8, 0.1, 0.15, 0.6, true)

    -- Create a players column in the list
    local column = guiGridListAddColumn(playerList, 'Player', 0.85)

    -- If the column has been created, fill it with players
    if not column then return end

    for id, playeritem in ipairs(getElementsByType('player')) do
        local row = guiGridListAddRow ( playerList )
        guiGridListSetItemText(playerList, row, column, getPlayerName(playeritem), false, false)
    end

    addEventHandler('onClientGUIClick', playerList, function()
        local row, column = guiGridListGetSelectedItem(playerList)
        outputChatBox(guiGridListGetItemText(playerList, row, column))
    end)
end
