hi,
it seems to mean something like this :
all <a> elements which string value is not in any <x> sibling element
or this :
the difference of 2 sets {<a>} - {<x>}
<B>
<a>1</a> this one
<a>2</a>
<a>1</a> this one
<x>3</x>
<x>4</x>
<x>2</x>
</B>
<B>
<a>3</a> this one
<a>1</a>
<a>2</a> this one
<a>3</a> this one
<x>5</x>
<x>4</x>
<x>1</x>
</B>
notice that :
a[ following::x != . ]
doesn't give the same result
