foreach() help

Hey guys..

I'm trying to use a modified version of Matt's tutorial on News Posting Script to make some sort of user verification system.

I just have a problem in the code, it loops the stuff depending on the number of lines in the database file...

here's an example:
http://members.lycos.co.uk/initialdrive/scripts/loopy.php

And here's the script:

php Code:

Original - php Code

 
<?
$username = "username";
$pass_enter = "password";
 
$pass = md5($pass_enter);
$double_check = array($username, $pass);
            
// Load User Database File
$check = file('userdata.dat');
$data = array_reverse($check);
foreach($check as $element) {
        $element = trim($element);
    $user_info = explode("|", $element);
    if($double_check == $user_info){
        echo "<p><b>Username already exists in the database</b>";
    }
    if($double_check != $user_info){
        echo "<p>Username does not exist in the database";
    }
}
?>
<body style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 8 pt">

The userdata.dat file has 3 lines (3 users with corresponding passwords)

As you can see, it loops 3 times and it prints out the right stuff...I tried using break; in the script but it only evaluated the first line of the database file...

Can anyone clarify how I make the script just print out one line? depending on if the username is found, it'll print "Username Found" and if not it'll print "Username not Found"

Thanks
