Shell Programming and Scripting

#!/bin/sh
echo "Installing Java!!!"
cd /opt
echo "Want to give execute Permissions to java!!!"
chmod 755 jdk-6u7-linux-i586.bin
echo "Executing the jdk script"
./jdk-6u7-linux-i586.bin

This is the shell commands I am using...
I want to know how to give answer to yes and no automatically here when shell ask
Do you agree to the above license terms? [yes or no]

Please guide me on this

Thanks in advance
