Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting how to proceed when curl is finished Post 302689589 by Chubler_XL on Tuesday 21st of August 2012 06:07:03 PM

Perhaps the URL contains a ampersand (&) character causing the curl to be run in the background.

Why do you need to do an eval instead of invoking curl directly?

For debuging purposes try printing the command before you eval it :

Code:
string=$(echo "curl -d "'"'$datastring'"'" -b cookie.txt -c cookie.txt -L "$url)
printf "%s\n" "$string"
eval $string > source.html
teststring=$(awk '/text/' source.html)
