With Saxon it's easy, saxon:sum(preceding::text(), saxon:expression('string-length(.)'); With standard XSLT it's a bit more work: you need a recursive template that calculates the total string-length of a node-set by finding the strgin-length of the first node, and adding the total of the remaining nodes, which you get by calling yourself recursively.
