I'm simply trying to exclude a specified child node from
being within the nodeList created by my expression e.g.
<document>
<a>
<b>
</b>
<c>
</c>
</a>
</document>
Select node 'a' but remove child 'c' from the result set.
XPath expressions return a set of nodes from the original tree. They can't
modify the tree in any way. The <a> node in your document has a <c> child,
and there is nothing any XPath expression can do to change that. The
expression /document/a doesn't actually include either the b or c elements
in its result set, but the a that it returns is the original a, with its
children intact.
