if...elif...fi condition in Unix

Hey guyes!

i have a little problem in if condition, can anybody please solve my problem?

Here what i am doing.

Code:
if [ $int1 = $int2 ]
then
       echo "int1 is equal to int2"
elif [ $int1 > $int2 ]
then
       echo "int1 is greater than int2"
else
     echo "int1 is smaller than int2"
fi

No, matter int1 is smaller than int2 it says int1 is greater than int2, even thoug i put small value for int1.

it did not go to last "else" part (int1 is smaller than int2) why ?
am i doing something wrong ? please help me.

thanks
Abid Malik
