If I enter 2 for uservar, this is what I get (after having adapted the case ... esac statement):
Code:
this is only a test

Idea is that i have multiple cases. Case 2 is case1 + some new string which i added.
Case 3 is case1+case2+some new string

So if case one result is
123 text
Case2 will be
123 text new2
Case3 will be
123 text new2 new3
