I don't know what the browser.sh script does, but what you do is  
starting a new shell and let it parse whatever is in the script, when  
the browser.sh script ends, sh will terminate and you'll be back  
where you started. If that script for instance change to another  
directory it will only be done within the new shell and you won't see  
anything.

You'll get a much better idea of what the browser.sh script does and  
what it expects for command line etc. if you open it in you favorite  
test editor (whichever that might be...) and try to read it, scripts  
are usually commented and that might make some sense. It would be  
much easier to help you if you told us where you got that script and  
where you downloaded it from. I've never heard of it, but that  
doesn't say much.

HTH.
