But i did a typo mistake file contain these line,and many more but some what different from each other.
"/var/www/abc">

Why not use tr? You can use sed, right, but why not tr?

Code:

root@isau02:/data/tmp/testfeld> cat infile
"/some/path/whatever/weekend">
"/var/www/abc">
"/var/www/xyz">
"/is/close/noting/can/stop/it">
"/really">
root@isau02:/data/tmp/testfeld> tr -d '">' < infile
/some/path/whatever/weekend
/var/www/abc
/var/www/xyz
/is/close/noting/can/stop/it
/really
root@isau02:/data/tmp/testfeld> sed 's/[">]//g' infile
/some/path/whatever/weekend
/var/www/abc
/var/www/xyz
/is/close/noting/can/stop/it
/really
