Use recursion. Any good XSLT textbook or tutorial will explain how to
process such strings using a recursive named template. Look for examples
on the xsl-list FAQ at www.dpawson.co.uk. Alternatively, use existing
library routines such as str:tokenize defined at www.exslt.org. If
you're still stuck, ask on xsl-list at www.mulberrytech.com
