Your input file may contains carriage return character at the end of records.
Does your input file come from Windows ?

Try to modify the AWK program :
Code:
#!/bin/gawk -f
{
   if ($0 !~ /<a|<img/) next;
   link++;
   gsub(/\r+/, "");

guys, i have been given this assignment. after i create the awk script, i have to implement it in a C shell script.

Quote:
Next, write a C shell script (called ss1) with a synopsis
ss1 [-r] directory
The ss1 command takes a directory path name as its argument and applies your awk script
(aa1) separately to each of the web page files (those with .html and .htm extensions etc) in the
directory. The output from the shell script should be to the standard output. If the r option is set,
the command should run recursively over all subdirectories in the hierarchy below the directory.
To run ss1 on your own file hierarchy it should be possible to do this with the command
aa1 -r $HOME
NB you should choose a form for listing your urls in the output of aa1 so that you can run aa1
again on your output from ss1 (eg by piping the output from ss1 into aa1) to produce a summary of
all the links in all the web pages in the hierarchy. The number of times each link occurs will now
be the number of FILES in which each occurs.
so the c shell script, take one argument, which is the path of the folder, and it applies my awk script mentioned before. im new to unix, and i find this very hard to do
