You should not be using the trim() function if you want php to leave whitespaces as it is. If you apply trim on some string it removes whitespaces from the beginning and end of it.

From the PHP documentation :

trim — Strip whitespace (or other characters) from the beginning and end of a string

Get rid of the call to trim.

This function returns a string with whitespace stripped from the beginning and end of str.
