xsl - exclude <td> from <div>

Question

is there any way to have a div around an entire table, but exclude one <td>?

TIA

Answer 1

It's possible, but it's considered extremely poor form. Depending on the browser, you might get the result you're looking for. Most likely, though, you should re-think your problem and determine a solution that doesn't require fragmenting well-defined constructs.

Answer 2

If your <td> of interest has an id or a known position, or known content, then yes, it's possible to leave it out of a transformation. When you do the transformation you just exclude it from the selection based on the thing that makes it unique.
