Perhaps try the script beforehand in a terminal: ---- snip ---- {2}sed -e '|x|y|' sed: -e expression #1, char 1: unknown command: `|' ---- snip ---- So no, it's not. You actually wanted: ---- snip ---- echo $1 | sed -e 's|</head>|<style>* {color:white !important; background-color: black !important; } </style></head>|' ---- snip ---- Or just use bash (and avoid anorther fork()+exec()): ---- snip ---- #!/bin/bash --norc echo ${1/<\/head>/<style>* {color:white !important; background-color: black !important; } <\/style><\/head>}' ---- snip ---- Caveat emptor: Untested! I know all that stuff about sed (GNU-sed and other sed's ..) ...
