Hi I have a field in mysql that has paths to files such as:
project/entertainment/andrew/job/1.jpg project/corporate/roberts/job/1.jpg project/corporate/andrew/job/1.jpg project/identity/john/job/1.jpg The first level is always 'projects'. What I want to do is get the unique name for the 3rd level for all entertainment, corporate and identity, so from the data above I would get returned: andrew john roberts What's the best way to acheive this? I remember seeing something where you can split a field in the mysql into parts (ie, split at /)? or would a regex be better ('WHERE REGEX "^projects/corporate|entertainment|identity/' (this doesnt work))? Hope someone can help.
