RE: Don't understand it, ...

	Try this:

	<xsl:template match="ELEMENTA">
	</xsl:template>

	<xsl:template match="ELEMENTB">
	</xsl:template>

	<xsl:template match="*">
	    <xsl:element name="{name()}">
	       <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
	       <xsl:apply-templates/>
	    </xsl:element>
	</xsl:template>

	Now ELEMENTA and ELEMENTB and all their children are omitted.
	If you need the children, just add  <xsl:apply-templates/> to both
templates
