[jQuery] Query for elements without a specific parent

[jQuery] Query for elements without a specific parent


Hello,
Assume, I have the following HTML:

<b>Text1</b>


<b>Text2</b>
How can I select the second <b>, which is not a child of a

? As I
am a newbie, I played a little bit around with :not, filter(), but
unfortunately
$('b').filter(":not(p > b)") => both <b> are selected.
$('b').not('p > b') => both <b> are selected.
Any hints?
