The for-each "(1 to 10)" using a predefined variable worked fine.
Thanks all.

Use a variable e.g.

   <xsl:variable name="items" select="foo"/>
   <xsl:for-each select="1 to 10">
     <bar>
       <xsl:value-of select="if ($items[position() eq current()]) then
$items[position() eq current()] else 'N/A'"/>
     </bar>
   </xsl:for-each>
