I'm parsing a big xml file with help of Twig module. To speed up the script i'm trying to ignore some parts of the file using twig_roots and ignore_elts. My problem arises because all unwanted parts are childs of the same kind of parent tag (<data> in example). 

<doc>
   <data>
      <type>xxx</type>
      <vars>a</vars>
   </data>
   <data>
      <type>yyy</type>
      <vars>b</vars>
   </data>
</doc>

[download]

Anyone can show me how to ignore <data> elements, that have <type> equal to 'yyy'?

Thanks, Ricardo
