exclude multiple nodetypes from foreach

Hi i have the following select

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::* [@isDoc and @level=$level]/* [@isDoc and @nodeType != '1134' and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']">

which works fine, however i now want to exclude another document type from the select, so i have done the following:

<xsl:for-each select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::* [@isDoc and @level=$level]/* [@isDoc and @nodeType != '1134' and @nodeType != '1177' and string(umbracoNaviHide) != '1']">

Whaqt happens now is that it does not exclude the second document type and for some reason it now also does not exclude the first document type.

I am using the latest umbraco version.

Thanks !

Hi Cookie Monster,

I'd rewrite that to something like this:
```
<xsl:for-each select="
    $currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@isDoc and @level = $level]
    /*[@isDoc and not(umbracoNaviHide = 1)]
    [not(@nodeType = 1134) and not(@nodeType = 1177)]
">
```
* Find the ancestor (or self) at level $level,

* take its child documents that are not hidden,

* which are not any of the nodeTypes 1134 or 1177

Instead of using the @nodeType attribute, it would actually be much clearer to use the Aliases of said document types, e.g.:
```
<xsl:for-each select="
    $currentPage/ancestor-or-self::*[@isDoc and @level = $level]
    /*[@isDoc and not(umbracoNaviHide = 1)]
    [not(self::NewsList or self::PeopleContainer)]
">
```
