Hi,

I'm always happy to help spreading the Wiki thought:)

Just in case you should prefer 1 stage transformations, here's another  
solution:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";  
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="text"/>

<xsl:template match="li">
	<xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>
	<xsl:for-each select="ancestor::ul">-</xsl:for-each>
	<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
	<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="text()">
	<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Have fun...

regards,
