Excluding nodes

[Bruce L. (c) <bl...@sa...>]

Hi,

How do I match everything except a given node?

I know //*/* matches any node with an element as a parent. I want to match
every node with an element as a parent except for one node with a specific
name (news_detail.)

Something like -

//*/*/@!=news_detail ???

I can't find an example in Michael Kay's book - is there one?

Bruce.
