Huh?


I need to manipulate the path though now, I am wanting to search
for *all* the text following the third "/" and before the fourth "/" and
replace it with a string variable.


That sounds almost as if you're wanting to use substr and index: index
to locate each "/", and substr to work with the identified part of the
string.

Or maybe you want to use a substitution (s///), but I doubt that.

But if you're really manipulating file and directory names, probably a
solution involving (say) File::Basename or another module would be
more likely to be correct.

Hope this helps!

File::Spec->splitdir will let you split the string into directories 
which you can manipulate individually.


Or you can just use the split function to split on "/".

Good luck.
