<div n="a">
. . .
. . .
<spec>red</spec>
<spec>green</spec>
. . .
<div n="b">
. . .
<spec>blue</spec>
. . .
</div>
<div n="c">
<spec>yellow</spec>
</div>
. . .

</div>
When the current element is <div n="a">, I need an XPATH expression that returns the red and green elements, but not the blue and yellow ones, as .//spec does.
When the current element is <div n="b">, the same expression needs to return the blue element; when <div n="c">, the yellow element.
Something like .//spec[but no further than another div if there is one]
