Which "above" are you talking about? More than one script has been posted.
What does "doesn't work" mean exactly? What does happen?
Please post exactly what you tried and exactly what output there was and copy any error messages exactly.
These questions have nothing to do with HP-UX itself, but with the shell you are using. Make sure that you are using a POSIX shell. That may or may not be /bin/sh.
They are all very basic shell scripting questions, so basic, in fact, that I wonder if they are really what you want to ask.
