Hi,

Did you ftp the file from somewhere? If you did ftp in binary mode, you will get junk characters when u open the file in vi editor..

No, i haven't done any FTP.
I my script i just used command "clear", because of that it is creating problem.
I just removed clear then it is coming fine.
Tell me what could be the reason?
