Subject: Using XPATH axis within a recursive structure to match a descendent node

I'm afraid I couldn't think of a better title!

Take a look at the xml below. The goal is to match the load tags of 0 and 1, but NOT 2. I need an expression which matches ALL load tags that are descendents of the current gui tag, but not contained within descendent gui tags! Does that make sense to anybody?

i.e. descendant::load will also match 2, which I do not want. How might I approach this? Any ideas?

<gui> <load> ........................*0 something </load> <p> blah <b> blah <load> ........................*1 else </load> <gui> <load> ........................*2 <again </load> </gui> </b> </p> </gui>

Kindest Regards,

Ben
