  I am a bit intrigued by this expression.  I guess you mean
"not(self::title[..." (note the self axis)?

Darn, my average is slipping.


How about:

title[lang($2ndPreferredLanguage)][not(../title[lang($preferredLanguage)])]

That is, the title in the second language when no title is available in the first language.

I'll be the first to agree it's, em, somewhat baroque. But it's what we have in 1.0 (unless you prefer Romanesque xsl:choosing).

Cheers,
Wendell
