XSL has no access to the directory listing. I am sure Java folk could
get at that using extensions such as James Clark allows, but natively
in XSL no can do.

I cannot see how to solve your problem without *some* kind of
scripting. even doing a file list into a file and then mangling that
to a valid XML takes some minimal scripting.

A Perl script would be a few minutes work, if you have a
suitably-equipped colleague
