Hi everyone, Please have a look at this bash/mysql external helper. Can anyone tell me why is it not working? #/bin/bash connect="mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -b squid -u squid -p password -e" url="%DST" while read $url do if [ $connect "select site from porn where site='$url'" ] then echo OK else echo ERR fi done is there anyway I can test this directly on the server's shell
