Replacing URL in a file with space
Hi,

I have a file with a URL text written in it within double quotes e.g.

"http://abcd.xyz.com/mno/somefile.dtd"

I want the above text to get replaced by a single space character.

I tried

cat File1.txt | sed -e 's/("http)*(dtd")/ /g' > File2.txt

But it didnt work out. Can someone suggest an sed command which replaces this url text, including double quotes, with a space.

Thanks
