Oh - ok.

Setting aside my usual rant about XSLt not having loops as such :-) in
XSLT 1 i'd write a recursive template.

There's no ':' in your input - if you provide a real example we can
give you a working answer. Does # stand for a number? a digit? is "amt"
always the literal string 'amt' or is it a number? And so on.
