Not really a regex approach but here is my submittion:
$OK = "c:\\temp\\test\\test1\\test2";
$your_answer = substr($OK, 0, rindex($OK, "\\"));
# print $your_answer,"\n";

Subject: regular expression question
Dear all,
I have a question about a regular expression, for example
$OK = "c:\\temp\\test\\test1\\test2";
How can I do to make me get
$OK1 = "c:\\temp\\test\\test1";
That means I do not want the last part of the directory.
Thanks in advance!
Lixin
