Thank you for the followup.
What I want the script to do is keeping repeating it's self until the exit is called in f5. For example, when the user selects 1 to start/stop tomcat. After that command is executed, I want the script to go back to the menu to allow the user to input another option. Right now, after 1 is select, I need to rerun the script to get the menu back.
Thanks

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
tk_optionMenu - Create an option menubutton and its menu
SYNOPSIS
tk_optionMenu w varName value ?value value ...?
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This procedure creates an option menubutton whose name is w, plus an associated menu. Together they allow the user to select one of the
values given by the value arguments. The current value will be stored in the global variable whose name is given by varName and it will
also be displayed as the label in the option menubutton. The user can click on the menubutton to display a menu containing all of the val-
ues and thereby select a new value. Once a new value is selected, it will be stored in the variable and appear in the option menubutton.
The current value can also be changed by setting the variable.
The return value from tk_optionMenu is the name of the menu associated with w, so that the caller can change its configuration options or
manipulate it in other ways.
