hi,
i need to add a new local variable to my script.
then i want to display its value along the title(with echo).

desired result:
password = x

Actual result:
x

for some reason the below line displays the x value.

password=cat config.xml |grep 'DB Password'|cut -f3 -d '='|cut -f2 -d '"'


why is it that when i run the script it display the new variable & how can i avoid it value?
thanks...
