According to the manual trim and rtrim do remove newline chars, so you
probably have some errors in the code. Post it (the code) here, so we
could check what's wrong with it.

You could also use:

$lines = file( 'some_file.txt' );
for( $i=0; $i < count( $lines ); $i++ )
$lines[ $i ] = trim( $lines[ $i ] );
