how do I strip folders grandparents?

[tiago]

Hi.

Is there a method so I can grab the folder's "grandparent", on <curpath>?

Code: Select all

curpath:
C:\Arquivos de programas\microsoft frontpage\version3.0\bin

target:
C:\Arquivos de programas\microsoft frontpage\version3.0\

**
cp:
C:\Arquivos de programas\CONEXANT\CNXT_MODEM_PCI_VEN_14F1&DEV_2F50&SUBSYS_205F14F1

t:
C:\Arquivos de programas\CONEXANT\

**
cp:
C:\Arquivos de programas\acv315\removedcache\iconcache

t:
C:\Arquivos de programas\acv315\removedcache\

Thanks.

You could use e.g. a regexreplace like:

Code: Select all

$grandparent = regexreplace("<curpath>", "(.*(?=\\.*)\\)(.*)", "$1");

text $grandparent;

Not very elegant but it does it's job.

That's perfect highend, thanks a lot!
