@pandeesh: The field separator can be a regular expression. So -F'[/"]*' uses multiple occurrences of the character / and/or the character " as field separator. The fields of the first line thus become:
Code:
$1=[Sun Feb 12 10:36:20 2012] 
$2=home
$3=abc
$4=public_html
$5=index.php
$6=<empty>

-----
shell solution:
Code:
while IFS='/"' read f1 x x f4 x x x
do 
  echo "$f1$f4"
done < infile
