XSLT and XPath questions would be better posted to the following list:

   http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list

There are a number of subscribers who would enthusiastically respond to 
such questions.

There is also an *excellent* FAQ at:

   http://www.dpawson.co.uk

In there is a section on Iteration, which leads to a snippet at the 
following address:

   http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N4806.html

This tersely shows the use of a recursive template application, which can 
also be accomplished with a recursive template call.

I hope this helps.
