A slightly less expensive way to do this is to pass the array in as a
string of XML-like data and then serialize it into a node-set using the
node-set function particular to your processor.  Then you can process it
just like any other node-set.

Best of luck!

You cannot "cycle through" in XSLT using something like a for loop. 
Although you dont say what exactly the array is, i'd suggest passing it 
as a single string where array members are seperated by a certain 
character, then use a recursive template to process that using string 
functions to seperate the part you want to use from the part you want to

forward to the next 'iteration'.
