I found the solution already
it is <xsl:apply-templates select="*[not(self::PRFID)]" />
What I do not undestand is why "self" why not "child"? Can anyone explain
this?

Hi All
here is a part of xml document
<searchresults>
<PRFID>21</PRFID>
<FIRSTNAME>Ana</FIRSTNAME>
<LASTNAME>Ngera</LASTNAME>
<OFFICEPHONENUMBER>020 8452 4535</OFFICEPHONENUMBER>
<PHONEEXTENSION>4503</PHONEEXTENSION>
</searchresults>
searchresults is the recursive element
I want to use
<xsl:template match="searchresults">
<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:apply-templates>
Naturally this selects all the child elements of searchresult. I want to
exclude the first child node <PRFID>. What would be the syntax in
<xsl:apply-templates select="????" />
like select everything but not the <PRFID>.
thanks
Meltem
