Bash infinite loop problems?


Hi Guys,
I seem to have a problem with with this bash script.I suspect that it has something to do with the infinite while loop.In addition to that the
array element also has incorrect syntax.
here is the code
please help
Thanks
--------------------------------------------------------
#1/bin/bash
clear
#set -x
IFS_OLD= $IFS

ans=$(zenity --list --text "please check all parameters for the Web page" --checklist --column "Pick" --column "Parameters" TRUE "title" TRUE "H1" TRUE "para1" TRUE "para2" TRUE "imageURL" \
--separator=":") ; echo "$ans"

IFS=':'

parray=""
arrAns=""
inc=0

for param in $ans
do
parray[$inc]=$param
inc= $(( inc++ ))
done

echo ${#parray[@]}

inc=1
while $inc -le ${#parray[@]}
do

while true
do
test_param= $(zenity --entry --text "Please enter ${#parray[$inc]} for the webpage")

if [ $? -eq 0 ] && [ -n "$test_param" ] ; then
arrAns["$inc"]= $test_param
inc= $(( inc++ ))
break
fi
done
done
#echo ${#arrAns[@]}
#EOF

You were given some decent advice in your first thread, of which this one is a duplicate.

I see you also disregarded my suggestion to use CODE tags, making for a very hard-to-read bunch of code.

This thread is going to be closed. Please do not post your question in more than one place, and do not just disregard help and advice given to you previously, and start a new thread while leaving the old thread to drift off into oblivion.

Thanks. Closure pending.

Sasha

Is this a continuation of your earlier thread?

If so, we could make faster progress if you continued it in that thread and followed the advice given there, including posting your code in code tags (that's a link to instructions or you may prefer to use "Advanced Edit" mode which has a # button for code tags).
