Below is my menu options code. It allows user to pick one of two option. I can get the first option to work, because if it is selected it just "breaks" and carries on with the script.
What i want to know is if a user selects option two how do i get that option to ignore all the other script and go to another specific part to carry out other commands??? ( i have indicated the problem by putting ########)
Code:
while true; do
echo " "
echo "Main Menu: "
echo "Please Select An Option Using The Options Provided."
echo " "
echo "1 - Search All Files"
echo " "
echo "2 - Idex Page Information"
echo " "
echo "Q - Quit"
echo " "
echo "Please enter your option: "
read CHOSEN_KEY
case $CHOSEN_KEY in
[1]) echo " "
echo "You Have Selected To Search All Files For Hits"
break;; # By using break i carry on my script which works correctly.
[2]) echo " "
echo "You Have Selected To Access Index Page Information"
######;;
Q|q) echo " "
echo "Goodbye"
exit;;
esac
done

Please don't start a new thread for the same problem.

Please read my post in the original thread (especially the part about organizing the script with functions).
