    Thanks!

    That did it. I googled some code and made some changes:

        <xsl:template name="fixurl">
            <xsl:param name="string"/>
            <xsl:choose>
                <xsl:when test="contains($string, '/')">
                    <xsl:value-of select="concat(substring-before ($string, '/'), '/&#x200B;')"/>
                    <xsl:choose>
                        <xsl:when test="contains(substring-after ($string, '/'), '/')">
                            <!-- If the left over string still contains matches go recursive! -->
                            <xsl:call-template name="fixurl">
                                <xsl:with-param name="string" select="substring-after($string, '/')"/>
                            </xsl:call-template>
                        </xsl:when>
                        <xsl:otherwise>
                            <!-- If not simply return the rest of the string -->
                            <xsl:value-of select="substring-after ($string, '/')"/>
                        </xsl:otherwise>
                    </xsl:choose>
                </xsl:when>
                <xsl:otherwise>
                    <xsl:value-of select="$string"/>
                </xsl:otherwise>
            </xsl:choose>
        </xsl:template>
