To start with, I wouldn't write a for-each loop at all. Instead;
<xsl:template match="employees"> <!-- or whatever root you have-->
<table>
<xsl:apply-template select="employee_name" />
</table>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="employee_name" >
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="." /></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="following-sibling::employee_number" /></td>
</tr>
</xsl:template>
But the proper answer to your question is about learning the so called 'axis'
concept and in your particular case the "following-sibling::".

Hi All,
I got a problem with for-each statement. When you are inside a for-each
statement, how do you link the value inside the for-each statement with a
value that is outside of the element being looped through ?
This is the xml:
<employee_name>
</employee_name>
<employee_number>
</employee_number>
<employee_name>
</employee_name>
<employee_number>
</employee_number>
This is the output I want to have:
Employee Name: Test1 Employee Number: 123
Employee Name: Test2 Employee Number: 456
<xsl:for-each select="employee_name">
<tr>
<td> Employee Name: <xsl:value-of select="employee_name"></td>
<td>Employee Number: ______________________________ </td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
Any help would be appreciated
