Replace character with linebreak

Im trying to make a decompiler, I finaly managed to decompile the code to a string, but I want to add a linebreak after the character ";" so I tried:

str_replace(";", ";\n", $data);
file_put_contents($name.'.php', $data);

But it doesn't seem to create a linebreak

for new line break use following syntax:

 $data = str_replace(";", ";\r\n", $data);

for Apache server, we have to always use \r before \n for line break.

If you are on windows, you might want to try \r\n instead of just \n, or maybe look into the PHP constant PHP_EOL which contains

The correct 'End Of Line' symbol for this platform. Available since PHP 4.3.10 and PHP 5.0.2

"\r\n" would still be the best solution for cross system compatibility though. More info about that can be found in this question

You Should try 

str_replace(";", ";\n\r", $data);
file_put_contents($name.'.php', $data);

And Try to open in notepad++ or sublime Text

You're not assigning the output of str_replace to anything. Also, if you're looking at your file in Windows, you should also add a carriage return "\r".

You should do this :

 $data = str_replace(";", ";\r\n", $data);

The str_replace functions returns a string, it does not modify the string passed in parameters.
