You need an HDMI cable.One end goes into the laptop,while the other goes into the TV. ;)

that'd actually Stream the Laptop's screen to the TV :( 
I've never done so, you're better off waiting for someone with knowledge than me speculating

Oh but wait, you didn't say that at all in your post. You just told him to connect the TV to the laptop which all that did was either mirror the image on the TV or makes the TV the new display. You might wanna read what your 1st post was.

I know what I said.
But he's confusing,I don't know what he wants.Connect the TV and laptop? Record gameplay on xbox? He should be more precise. ;)

No he was. You weren't pal. Also if he wasn't precise and you didn't understand why would you give a suggestion and not ask him to clarify.

I just don't want you to give out info if you are unsure on what they're speaking about. Granted it wasn't harmful but it wasn't helpful.
