2) Process the rows like this. For clarity I ignore the need to
suppress the last trailing comma, then later I deal with it -
<xsl:template match="row">
<xsl:apply-templates select='@*' mode='fields'/>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text> <!-- or any other characters you
want-->
</xsl:template>
Ypu should add an xsl:sort here (eg on name()) as otherwise your columns
will come out in arbitrary order, and possibly different orders
on each row.

but in a csv file if each row has things in a different order how can
you know which field is which?
