syntax error near unexpected token `then'

["Stuart Stephen" <stuart.stephen@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have the following script in a file, which as far as I can see complies to
the help in the OS. ('$ help if'). However, when I try to run the script it
does not work?

Instead I get the following errors at runtime.

/root/scripts/proj.install: line 48: syntax error near unexpected token
`then'
/root/scripts/proj.install: line 48: `  if[ "$?" == 1 ]; then '

I don't understand what is wrong with it, from what I can tell the only
thing I can do is make it an exclusive if statement and therefore I couldn't
have an else or elif in the function? I'm confused to why it would not work?
Please could someone enlighten me of where i'm going wrong?

Thanks,
Stuart Stephen

cont() {
  /root/scripts/continue
  if[ "$?" == 1 ];
    then
    echo "Continuing process.";
  else
    exit 1;
  fi
}
