Can't figure out how to "add" to a text file

Ok
Here's my code:
$1 = $1 + "\n".$2;
And here's the output
07
I want the output to be:
0
7
I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, anyone?

This output is displayed in a html browser?
Then you need <br /> instead of \n

Or stick <pre> tags around the output if you must use \n

I've done it to a file now and it's not doing a new line
It has the value of $1 then the little square symbol thing then the value of $2...
Any help?

\r\n or try the PHP_EOL constant (if you are running PHP 4.3.10+ or PHP 5.0.2+)
