Question
Yes, Thanks for such a nice reply. But, thing is that this is not working along with HTML code. Where I need to include both HTML and nawk code.
The command exit (0) is existing from the nawk function, but it's executing the next line, i.e. "./exbin/mk_ht ./high/practice.ihtml".

Is it possible to use if condition along with the executable file inside an awk program ? For e.g.

if ( ($1 == "m_who") && ($4 == "External")) {
print "You don have access"
exit(0)
};
else{
system("./exbin/mk_ht ./high/practice.ihtml")
}

As it's in a HTML code, the SYSTEM call is also not working properly.
I want to avoid to do anymore operation after the error message. Please let me know if you have any clue regarding this.

Thanks,
Rohit..

What does "not working properly" mean?

What HTML code are you talking about? You cannot execute awk scripts within HTML code (HTML is not a programming language), unless you are using SSI CGI scripts, in which case, where is awk getting its input?

Well, sorry if there is any confusion..

This code is for front end, which is using HTML and java script. This is one of the program, which was using nawk and working fine. I have given the sample code also. I need to add one more condition as to exit the whole program once the error will prompt.

Once we get the error, it should come out of the program or stop there itself instead of coming ONLY out of that loop.

Hope it's clear enough now. The sample code is also posted in my earlier reply.

Thanks !!
