Call it like this

<xsl:template match="/">
   <html><body><table><tr>
     <xsl:call-template name="split">
       <xsl:with-param name="input-string" select="root/child"/>
       <xsl:with-param name="separator" select="','"/>
     </xsl:call-template>
   </tr></table></body></html>
</xsl:template>
