Hi,
Glossing David again,
If you have
<xsl:variable name="alpha" select="A | B | C | D"/>
Keep in mind this will bind $alpha only to the A,B,C and D children of the context (the root if the variable declaration is global).
You can bind to all the A|B|C|D in the document with
<xsl:variable name="alpha" select="//A | //B | //C | //D"/>

<xsl:template match="*[exists(. except $alpha)]">
will work with the declaration of $alpha given above.
Of course this will tend to be much less efficient than what David suggests:
I've had times when I wanted to parameterize match patterns though.

<xsl:template match="* except $alpha"/>no that would be a legal xpath but not a pattern
or <xsl:template match="*[not $alpha]"/>
no, that's a syntax error so wouldn't run at all
<xsl:template match="*[exists(. except $alpha)]">
will work with the declaration of $alpha given above.
Of course this will tend to be much less efficient than what David suggests:
easiest is
<xsl:template match="*"> the complement
<xsl:template match="A|B|C|D" priority="2"> this one
I've had times when I wanted to parameterize match patterns though.
Cheers, Wendell
