I think if you change the template for 'record' elements to the following

  <xsl:template match="record">
    <xsl:variable name="this" select="."/>
    <tr>
      <xsl:for-each select="../structure/field/@name">
        <xsl:apply-templates select="$this/*[local-name() = current()]"/>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </tr>
  </xsl:template>

then the stylesheet I posted does what you want.
