Use a recursive template.

Once you have the first answer, call the template from within itself
using substring-after(tag,'e') as a parameter

(reference: xsl:call-template, xsl:with-param, substring-after,
recursive templates)

I was not accurate enough:

what in

<tag>eabcdefg</tag>, the positions of e is 1 and 6.

and 

<tag>eab<tag2>cdef<tag2>g</tag>, the positions of e in <tag> is 1 and 6?

For 1 based answer:

The position of 'e' is <xsl:value-of
select="string-length(substring-before(tag,'e')) + 1"/>

For 0 based answer:

The position of 'e' is <xsl:value-of
select="string-length(substring-before(tag,'e'))"/>

Hello,

does anybody know how to get the value of the position of a character in
an element?

e. g. : in <tag>abcdefg</tag>, the position of e is 5.

Thank you.
