Node selection question

["Respess, Christe" <crespess at devcor dot com>]

Hi:

I am new to XSL and have not seen an example of this sort before, so I
thought I'd ask for some advice from those more experienced.  The
question concerns making a selection by filtering out certain nodes
based on what element type their parent node is.  The type of node I am
interested in selecting, INFO-OBJ, appears at any level in the XML
document.  What I want to do is to select all the INFO-OBJ nodes that
are not children of INFO-OBJ nodes.  The following statement works but
as this will be applied to many documents of different structures and
I've only tested on one, I want to know if this is the best way to make
this sort of selection.

<xsl:apply-templates select="//INFO-OBJ[context()[not(INFO-OBJ)]]" />

TIA for any advice or links to good XML sites that may address this sort
of thing.

Christe
