Methyl, I stand by with you. This USAGE is something providing the user about the Function and aprameter of the script built for.

But my script is looping with the USAGE still now. I have got no hints where needs it needs to be changed.

Whenever I run with all the Input Parameters, the script outputs the same result as what without the Input Parameters provides. Even when i check its exit status, it showing sucess. But no idea where is the real bug exists in that.

Here is an output after making changes as what "Scrutinizer' has said previuosly.

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

  USAGE:
  xmlSearch.sh  <OPTION> <SERVICE_NAME>

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

NAME
OpaL::manipulate - Perl extension for manipulating files. SYNOPSIS
use OpaL::manipulate qw(functions); No functions or variables are exported automaticly so you have to specify them here. DESCRIPTION
OpaL::manipulate is a module for manipulating files. All functions are autoloaded so they will not be loaded into memory if you have not used them before. FUNCTIONS
perlmodifyadvanced It simply applies the script to the file to change its content. You also have to apply a message to tell what you are doing mostly for debugging and if any error occures. The error level tells how critical this action is to the script. USAGE: "perlmodifyadvanced"("file", "script", "message", errorlevel); The errorlevel is optional. perlmodify It simply fixes some stuff in the script string and then calls perlmodifyadvanced. USAGE: "perlmodify"("file", "script", "message", errorlevel); The errorlevel is optional. perlmodify_insertafter This function searches for something (regular expression). It if is found it inserts the text after it. But it will never insert the text twice. You also have to apply a message to tell what you are doing mostly for debugging and if any error occures. The error level tells how critical this action is to the script. USAGE: "perlmodify_insertafter"("file", "find", "text", "message", errorlevel); The errorlevel is optional. AUTHOR
