You can have <xsl:value-of select="$i + 1"/> but you can't have 
i = i + 1 (unless 0 = 1 and mathematics is inconsistent)

You need to generate output numbers as a function of the input (eg using
position() or count() not as a function of the last number output.
This is a general feature of declarative languages.
