Subject: [PHP] mysql split?
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.
Regards
