Equivalent in PHP

function rotn($txt, $shift = 13, $n = 126) {
	$array_text = str_split($txt);
	foreach($array_text as $key => $value){
		if(ord($value) <= $n){
			$new_ascii = (ord($value) + $shift);
			if($new_ascii >= 0){
				$array_text[$key] = chr($new_ascii);
			} else {
				$array_text[$key] = chr($n + $new_ascii);
			}
		}
	}
    return implode('',$array_text);
}
$txt = 'Hello Word';
echo rotn($txt);
