Binding XML to a listbox

Hi I am having trouble binding some xml to a list box:

here is my XML:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manual>
    <chapter chaptitle="ATA 21">
        <title>21-01-01.xml</title>
        <title>21-01-A.xml</title>
        <title>21-01-B.xml</title>
        <title>21-02-01.xml</title>
    </chapter>
</manual>

Here is my xslt:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
    <xsl:template match="/">
        <manual>
            <xsl:apply-templates select="chapter"/>
        </manual>
    </xsl:template>
  <xsl:template match="chapter">
    <chapter>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="title"/>
    </chapter>
  </xsl:template>
  <xsl:template match="title">
    <title>
      <xsl:value-of select="."/>
    </title>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

here is my ASPX:

Code:

<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb" Inherits="_Default" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
    <title>Untitled Page</title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        <asp:ListBox ID="ListBox1" runat="server" DataSourceID="XmlDataSource1" Height="210px"
            Width="386px"></asp:ListBox><asp:XmlDataSource ID="XmlDataSource1" runat="server"
                DataFile="~/masterfiles.xml" TransformFile="~/test.xslt" XPath="manual/chapter/title/node()">
            </asp:XmlDataSource>

    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

How do I display the innertext of the XML in the list box? what would be the correct XPATH?

for example:

21-01-01.xml
21-01-A.xml
21-01-B.xml
21-02-01.xml

Thanks
