how to do in sh shell

Hi,
I am attaching my shell script here then I will put my doubt:

#!/bin/sh
errorexit ()
{
echo Error : $*
echo
}
stval=`cut -d, -f1 ./dir.conf`
for dir in $stval
do
echo " this is $dir"
if [ ! -d "$dir" ]
then
errorexit "$dir" does not exist
fi

if [ ! -x "$dir" ]
then
errorexit "$dir" cannot be accessed
fi

if [ ! -r "$dir" ]
then
errorexit no read permission in $dir
fi

if [ ! -w "$dir" ]
then
errorexit no write permission in $dir
fi
done

the dir.conf is a file which contains the name of directories. I got the directories name and stored it in dir variable. Now I test the different permissions by using if conditions for each directory using for loop.Let say if [ ! -d "$dir" ] is true then it will give some error message. now I face problem like the succesding if statements also executed. Here I cant use exit or break command because it comes out of program. goto command is not understood by sh shell. now my obejective is if any if condtion is true for any directory, it shoul dgive some error message and it should check for another directory which are stored in dir variable. So please help me if any one know. if any more infrmation need then please ask me.
