Sorry still not clear! (And unfortunately you didn't update your posts with code-tags either).

2 possibilities:

If you want the whole sub-path which fills into the wild-card, then the demonstrated code is already perfect. Try it out.
If you're only interested in the highest level folder do a @folders = split '/', $path for every path found by your glob and just take $folder[$index], where index is the number of folders in the "head" part.
E.g 4 for "../../dir1/dir2/" will give you the next directory after "dir2".

HTH! =)

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
