    Resolved Reading Text File and Updating Database

    I'm using the code below to read a txt file from my site then looping through it 1 line at a time and updating user details. The problem is if the txt file has more than 1 line the database is not updated. Can anyone help me out?

    PHP Code:
    include("db_connect.php");

    $array_tmp file('osprey.txt');

    foreach(
    $array_tmp as $v) {
    $Update_Details mysql_query("UPDATE tblUsers SET OSPREY = 'YES' WHERE username = '$v'");
    }

    echo 
    "All Complete"

    The file function takes newline characters with it too. Use the trim function on $v.
