How can I select the second <b>, which is not a child of a <p>? As I
am a newbie, I played a little bit around with :not, filter(), but
unfortunately
Use next()??

I don't think next() will work in this case. Jochen is dealing with
parents and children here, and next() deals with siblings.
Jochen, try this instead:
$('b').filter(function() {
return !$(this).parent('p').length;
})
