I'd just do a regex replace using preg_replace to get it done in a single line of code.

I hate looping over strings by line so I'd do:

php:
<?php

$file_contents file_get_contents($filename);

$new_file_contents preg_replace('/(^\s+)|(\s+$)/'''preg_replace('/\s*\|\s*/''|'$file_contents));

Basically replace a pipe with spaces on either side of them with just a pipe. And then also replace beginning and ending spaces on a line with the empty string.
