How do I skip an element?

["Larry Mason" <Larry_Mason@xxxxxx>]

Hi all !
I am trying to produce a table where the column headings are the element names
except for one particular name that is to be excluded.  What is giving me fits
is the exclusion.  I tried several approaches, all of which fail.  Any insight
would be appreciated.  I am using XT for the transformation.
Thanks,

XML
<data>
<row><column1>text1a</column1><column2>text1b</column2><column3>text3a</column3></row>
<row><column1>text2a</column1><column2>text2b</column2><column3>text3b</column3></row>
</data>

I want
<table>
<tr>
<th>column1</th>
<th>column3</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>text1a</td>
<td>text1c</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>text2a</td>
<td>text2c</td>
</tr>
</table>

Here are some things I've tried to get the TH to work but are returning 'invalid
token' or 'unexpected token' errors.
I don't know what the column names will be except there is one column that is
always present which I want to exclude.

<xsl:for-each select="data/*[first-of-any()]/*[name(.) !='column2']">
   <TH><xsl:value-of select="name(.)"/></TH>
</xsl:for-each>

<xsl:for-each select="data/*[first-of-any()]/* $and$ data/*/*[name(.)
!='column2']">
   <TH><xsl:value-of select="name(.)"/></TH>
</xsl:for-each>
