Try <xsl:for-each select="*[not(local-name()='a' or local-name()='b')]">

Subject: [xsl] XPath help
What XPath do I use to specify "elements which are neither <a> nor <b>"?
Here's an example:
<top>
<a>1</a>
<a>2</a>
<a>3</a>
<b>1</b>
<b>2</b>
<c>1</c>
<c>2</c>
<c>3</c>
<c>4</c>
<c>5</c>
<d>1</d>
<d>2</d>
</top>
I would like to iterate over all but the <a> and <b> elements, in this case,
<c> and <d> elements.
Something like this is what I had in mind:
<xsl:template match="top">
<xsl:for-each select="*[not(a|b)]">
<!-- do something -->
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
But it does not seem to work. I can't find the syntax for this, but it can't
be that hard. Suggestions?
