Recursive algorithm? (template which starts at the first, and calls
itself passing param = param + 1).

Hi List,

Thanks in advance for the help. I'm wondering if there's an elegant
way to format position() like:
1st 2nd 3rd and so on. I've looked through google for a format that
works with xsl:number, but haven't been able to find anything. I know
I could always do a long <xsl:choose> statement, but it feels wrong.
Anyway here's some samples

XML

<root>
 <num>foo</num>
 <num>bar</num>
</root>

Output

<root>
<num>1st</num>
<num>2nd</num>
</root>

Cheers,

Spencer
