Ops, I wanted to mean that I haven't found any (controlled) iteration
statement to express such a logic in my XSLT stylesheet. I knew that I had
to implement that in my stylesheet ; being a FOp newbie, I'm still guessing
how ... :)

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.
