Do you have a sample set with which to try this?
Do you know what the expected results are from the operation you are
wanting to perform?
Do the commands below generate those expected results?

If so, can you share those with the group?

For example ...

$ touch foo.html foo.css foo.txt a-foo.txt

$ tree
.
├── a-foo.txt
├── foo.css
├── foo.html
└── foo.txt

0 directories, 4 files

$ find ./ -type f ! \( -iname "*.html" -o -iname "*.css" \) -print -delete
.//foo.txt
.//a-foo.txt

$ find ./ -type f ! -iname "*.txt" -print -delete
.//foo.html
.//foo.css

$ tree
.

0 directories, 0 files
