"only problem is that I have to do everything by hand"
That's no problem at all, unless your hand is broken (and if so you can learn to use your other hand).
First you should try to figure out what the heck you're trying to do, because you certainly don't explain it here.
After that you should figure out what XSLT actually is as you seem to think it's some kind of magic bullet that just does everything all the time.
