Hi

I have an XML document like this:
 
============================
<Objects>
        <Object>
                <PropertyList>
                        <Property>
                                <Name>Property1</Name>
                                <Value>abc</Value>
                        </Property>
                </PropertyList>
        </Object>
        <Object>
                <PropertyList>
                        <Property>
                                <Name>Property1</Name>
                                <Value>xyz</Value>
                        </Property>
                </PropertyList>
        </Object>
</Objects>
============================

and I want to extract all <Object> elements except the ones that have
[Name='Property1' and Value='abc'] (there are several such restrictions
on Name / Value pairs). I tried the following but the 2nd match pattern
is not allowed in XSLT:

============================
<xsl:template match="/Objects">
        <xsl:copy>
                <xsl:apply-templates select="./*"/>
        </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="/Objects/*/PropertyList/Property[./Name='Property1'
and ./Value='abc']/../.." priority="1"/>

<xsl:template match="/positions/*" priority="0">
        <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
============================

How could I achieve this?

Thanks, Christian
