<cfset value = REReplace( "/level-1/2nd-level/index.cfm" "/([^/]+)/.*", "\1", "ONE" ) />
This puts the first "directory" (level-1) into the first group reference. Then it replaces the entire string with that group reference. ......................

I've been using one of those regex editors, but I just can't seem to get my head around the way it's used (regEx buddy). What I want to do is take a URL string, such as "/level-1/2nd-level/index.cfm" and just keep the string which is between the first set of "/" ("level-1" no quotes). How would this be written?
