I have a table named news with a column content of type text. This table contains more than 50000 records.

The text of the content column may contains several links that look like that http://www.domain.com/news/voir/ID/title I want to replace the domain.com in all these links with newdomain.com

What is the most efficient solution to do this ?

Thanks for your help.

    I’d recommend

    UPDATE news SET content = REPLACE(content, 'http://www.domain.com/', 'http://www.newdomain.com/');

    to avoid hitting possibly LOTS of flase positives … think of a news article saying “An outage today hit domain.com, as the ISP blah blah” … you wouldn’t want to replace that!
