value=0

cat << EOF > /tmp/xiti.tmp
<!--\
Xt_param = 's=279747&p=';\
try {Xt_r = top.document.referrer;}\
catch(e) {Xt_r = document.referrer; }\
Xt_h = new Date();\
Xt_i = '<img width="39" height="25" border="0" alt="" ';\
Xt_i += 'src="http://logv33.xiti.com/hit.xiti?'+Xt_param;\
Xt_i += '&hl='+Xt_h.getHours()+'x'+Xt_h.getMinutes()+'x'+Xt_h.getSeconds();\
if(parseFloat(navigator.appVersion)>=4)\
{Xt_s=screen;Xt_i+='&r='+Xt_s.width+'x'+Xt_s.height+'x'+Xt_s.pixelDepth+'x'+Xt_s.colorDepth;}\

Hi,

Check this

sed -e 's/<body>/${m_tag}/g' "$file" > "$file".tmp && mv -f "$file".tmp "$file"

Thanks,

sed -e "s/<body>/${m_tag}/g" "$file" > "$file".tmp && mv -f "$file".tmp "$file"

Drop all the single quotes and use double quotes. Remember, single quotes disable parameter expansion. See the following

[/tmp]$ a='some text'
[/tmp]$ echo $a
some text
[/tmp]$ echo '$a'
$a
[/tmp]$ echo "$a"
some text
