I think this is what you need (excuse the indentation):



<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl">

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <HTML>
      <BODY>

         <H1><xsl:value-of select="toc/title"/></H1>

	   <ol>
        	  <xsl:apply-templates select="toc/folder"/>
	   </ol>

      </BODY>
    </HTML>
  </xsl:template>


  <xsl:template match="folder">
	 <li id="foldheader"><xsl:value-of select="foldertitle"/></li>
	 <ol id="foldinglist">
		<xsl:apply-templates />
	 </ol>
  </xsl:template>


  <xsl:template match="folder/folder">
 	  <LI id="foldheader"><xsl:value-of select="foldertitle"/></LI>
      <ol id="foldinglist">
				<xsl:apply-templates />
			</ol>
  </xsl:template>


  <xsl:template match="list">
      <xsl:for-each select="file">
        <li><xsl:apply-templates /></li>
      </xsl:for-each>
  </xsl:template>


  <xsl:template match="text()"><xsl:value-of />
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>





.. I think you were introducing your <ol> tags in the wrong spots for what
your intended output.  Also you might want some <xsl:if> statements in the
folder and folder/folder templates to prevent having empty <ol></ol> tags
spewing out if there are no children of a particular folder.
