There are built-in templates that copy text nodes through, thus where
you use apply-templates but have elements selected not matched by your
templates the built-in templates copy the text nodes through.


Usually <xsl:template match="text()"/> helps against that.


Also in all those case you match explicitly against a certain element
that element becomes the context node for the template's code so you
usually want e.g.

 B  <xsl:template match="/record/adrRecord/personnel/ADM_ORG_CD">
<saml:Attribute Name="MY_ORG_CD"
NameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:basic">
<saml:AttributeValue xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xsi:type="xsd:string"> <xsl:value-of select="." />
</saml:AttributeValue>
</saml:Attribute>
</xsl:template>


and not

<xsl:template match="/record/adrRecord/personnel/ADM_ORG_CD">
<saml:Attribute Name="MY_ORG_CD"
NameFormat="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:attrname-format:basic">
<saml:AttributeValue xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xsi:type="xsd:string"> <xsl:value-of
select="/record/adrRecord/personnel/ADM_ORG_CD" />
</saml:AttributeValue>
</saml:Attribute>
</xsl:template>
