E.g.

<xsl:template match="Root">
  <html>
    <head>
      <title />
    </head>
    <body>
      <table>
        <tbody>
          <xsl:apply-templates select="*" />
        </tbody>
      </table>
    </body>
  </html>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*[not(*)]">
  <tr>
    <td>
      <xsl:for-each select="ancestor::*[not(self::Root)] | .">
        <xsl:if test="not(position() = 1)"> - </xsl:if>
        <xsl:value-of select="name()" />
      </xsl:for-each>
    </td>
    <td>
      <xsl:value-of select="." />
    </td>
  </tr>
</xsl:template>
