I expelled that function and retained the loop, and also changed != to -ne.

It worked well and also thrown out the USAGE, which actually im deserving. BUT
this has changed the other way, where it shouldnt throw the USAGE, instead it should extract the result for which the script was built.

Below are the output with changes.

Code:

VALID ERROR OUTPUT 

$ ./xmlSearch.sh -l
************************************************************
          CHECK USAGE FOR CORRECT PARAMETERS
************************************************************

  USAGE:
  xmlSearch.sh  <OPTION> <SERVICE_NAME>

  <SERVICE_NAME> = Enter the vaild SERVICE_NAME that exists in DIR.
  <-L | -l>      = Searching from the LIVE LOGS.
  <-A | -a>      = Searching from the ARCHIVE LOGS.

Invalid RESPONSE from the SCRIPT, when used with all INPUT PARAMETER

Code:

Invalid Result :(

$ ./xmlSearch.sh -a devicemanagementservice
************************************************************
          CHECK USAGE FOR CORRECT PARAMETERS
************************************************************

  USAGE:
  xmlSearch.sh  <OPTION> <SERVICE_NAME>

  <SERVICE_NAME> = Enter the vaild SERVICE_NAME that exists in DIR.
  <-L | -l>      = Searching from the LIVE LOGS.
  <-A | -a>      = Searching from the ARCHIVE LOGS.

Guide me where im going WRONG
