Why do I get "2" and "2-2" in output?

XSL:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:w="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main" version="1.0">

                <xsl:variable name="n">
                    <xsl:number from="w:tbl" level="any"/>
                </xsl:variable>
<xsl:message><xsl:value-of select="@XID"/> ----- <xsl:value-of select="$n"/></xsl:message>
                <xsl:if test="$n = 1">

                        w:element="livetechdocs"> </w:smartTag>
                </xsl:if>
            </xsl:if>
    </xsl:template>
 
</xsl:stylesheet>
 

XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<w:document  xmlns:w="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main" >
    <w:body>
        <w:p XID="1">
        </w:p>
 
 
<w:tbl>
        <w:tbl>
            <w:tr>
                <w:tc>
                    <w:p XID="2">
                    </w:p>
                    <w:p XID="2-2">
                    </w:p>
                </w:tc>
            </w:tr>
        </w:tbl>
</w:tbl>
        <w:p XID="3">
        </w:p>
 
        <w:tbl>
            <w:tr>
                <w:tc>
                    <w:p XID="4">
                    </w:p>
                </w:tc>
            </w:tr>
            <w:tr>
                <w:tc>
                    <w:p XID="5">
                    </w:p>
                </w:tc>
            </w:tr>
        </w:tbl>
 
    </w:body>
</w:document>

My XSL isn't supposed to output w:p inside of w:tbl when this w:tbl has another w:tbl across his ancestors. But it does. How should I change it to produce correct output?

[jkmyoung]

Your xpath looks for any ancestor w:tbl that doesn't have an ancestor w:tbl. BUT, there are 2 ancestor w:tbl. It rejects the first one, but accepts the second one (which doesn't have an ancestor w:tbl of it's own.)

Uhhh.. try instead:
w:p[ancestor::w:tbl[1][not(ancestor::w:tbl)]]">

Let me know if that doesn't work.

Another option is

w:p[count(ancestor::w:tbl) = 1]
