I've never had any difficulty getting XSL to handle recursion, but like
Dave Watts mentioned, it won't help you convert from non-XML data to XML.
For that you need to roll your own code, which I'm guessing is what
you're describing in the 2nd paragraph here. Yeah, your function can be
used to create the recursion you need to get your non-XML data into the
right format for your XML packet and then you can use XSL to convert
that into whatever you happen to need in terms of HTML/JavaScript if you
want to go with an HTML tree instead of a flash tree. (Though I hadn't
realized there was a pre-XML step here.)
