The .not and .filter methods only run against the matched elements within
the jQuery collection. In order to filter all elements you will need to add
all elements to the collection. I think something like this should work
(untested).
$('*', data).andSelf().not('style, meta, link, script, title, img');
andSelf is a jQuery 1.2 method. If you are using an earlier version you
could use $('*', data).add(data)
