isql input file with multiple sql statements

I've got:
isql -U $USERID -S $SERVER -D $DATABASE -i inputfile.sql -o outputfile.txt

in inputfile I have:
go
sql#1
go
sql#2
go
sql#3
go

I also tried without "go" and with";" instead which did not work
SQL statements will work if I paste them directly into the script and use EOF

Any ideas why they won't work as an input file?

mysql_drop_db - Drop (delete) a MySQL database

SYNOPSIS
Warning This function was deprecated in PHP 4.3.0, and will be removed in the future, along with the entirety of the original MySQL exten- sion. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include: oExecute a DROP DATABASE query bool mysql_drop_db (string $database_name, [resource $link_identifier = NULL]) DESCRIPTION
mysql_drop_db(3) attempts to drop (remove) an entire database from the server associated with the specified link identifier. This function is deprecated, it is preferable to use mysql_query(3) to issue an sql DROP DATABASE statement instead. o $database_name - The name of the database that will be deleted. o $ link_identifier -The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect(3) is assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect(3) was called with no arguments. If no connection is found or established, an E_WARNING level error is generated. Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. Example #1 mysql_drop_db(3) alternative example <?php $link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password'); if (!$link) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } $sql = 'DROP DATABASE my_db'; if (mysql_query($sql, $link)) { echo "Database my_db was successfully dropped "; } else { echo 'Error dropping database: ' . mysql_error() . " "; } ?> Warning This function will not be available if the MySQL extension was built against a MySQL 4.x client library. Note For backward compatibility, the following deprecated alias may be used: mysql_dropdb(3) mysql_query(3). PHP Documentation Group MYSQL_DROP_DB(3)
