Sub string Query select email, substr(email,4,10) from registration;

please and one write query for me.

Answer 1

This should do it:

SELECT REVERSE(SUBSTRING(REVERSE(SUBSTRING_INDEX(email, '@', -1)), LOCATE('.', REVERSE(email))+1));

This will include all dots between @ and the final one (e.g. "[e-mail]" will result in "a.long.domain.name") as opposed to nested SUBSTRING_INDEX which will only return whats between @ and the first dot (e.g "a").

Answer 2

substring_index() is the best approach:

select substring_index(substring_index(email, '@', -1), '.', 1)

Answer 3

Try using nested SUBSTring_INDEX function. http://www.w3resource.com/mysql/string-functions/mysql-substring_index-function.php
