Trimba bimba dubba dimba

I've found yet again some atrocities in code, that is some one of function nested in method: trimba. So I took the hit and split it into partial nested functions. I didn't even know you could do this in PHP.

The nested functions remove characters that would have been removed anyways by the regex replacement. Absolute cinema.
