Re: counting the element number in a recursive tree

<xsl:apply-templates/> is equivalent to <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>

In both cases templates are (just) applied to child nodes. Themplates
will be applied recursivly to other nodes if the templates that are
applied by this call do themselcves call apply-templates.
