Replace   n  with   n   The escape sequence is not recognized when you use     See the manual   For the question of how to write line endings  see the note here  Basically  different operating systems have different conventions for line endings  Windows uses   r n   unix based operating systems use   n   You should stick to one convention  I d chose   n   and open your file in binary mode  fopen should get  wb   not  w

PHP EOL is a predefined constant in PHP since PHP 4 3 10 and PHP 5 0 2   See the manual posting    Using this will save you extra coding on cross platform developments     IE     data    some data  PHP EOL   fp   fopen  somefile    a    fwrite  fp   data     If you looped through this twice you would see in  somefile    some data some data

Use PHP EOL which outputs  r n or  n depending on the OS
