Selecting all the children accept those with particula

Hi Jo,

This is a simple logical issue -- you don't want the value of the @att
and @fy attributes to be (respectively) 'value1' or 'value2'

Here's a nasty linguistic catch: we say "or" but we mean "neither,...
nor".

You have translated the linguistic expression literally into an XPath
expression and it (naturally) doesn't produce the desired results.

If you translate into XPath the correct "neither... nor", then you'll
have:

"*[@att != 'value1' and @fy != 'value2']"

Hope this helped,

Cheers,
Dimitre Novatchev.

My current failed attempt looks like this:

<xsl:template match="parent">
[......]
        <xsl:for-each select="child::*/[@att != 'value1' | @fy !=
'value2']">
[......]
</xsl:template>
