I am attempting to left zero pad a number.  Presently unable to get more
than 1 digit padding with my recursive padding template (below).
I desire the effect of chaining concat calls.
Code attached below.

How about <xsl:number format="000000" select="some-node"/>? Note that the format attribute's value is an attribute value template, so it can be derived from something in the source document.
