local questId = 12345; <- "12345" Change to your quest id, if you havent already.
for i=1,GetNumQuestLogEntries() do

		SelectQuestLogEntry(i);

The Absent Minded Prospector needs to be a string.

That's why I said, use quest name (-> quest title) instead of id. Calling that Lua function returns (in Vanilla) 7 different values, so you need a variable for the very first value. You then check, if the value (string) of the quest title variable is the same (string.match / string.find) as your quest name string.

Please read the documentation. There is an example of how to use these variables right at the bottom. http://classic-wow.wikia.com/wiki/API_GetQuestLogTitle#questTag

   var logId = Quest.GetLogIdByQuestId(1234);
        if (logId > 0)
        {
            Lua.LuaDoString("SelectQuestLogEntry(" + logId + "); SetAbandonQuest(); AbandonQuest(); ");
        }

This should work flawlessly.. just enter your ID.
