one way of working out what's wrong is to make it obvious what templates are
firing by having them output 
something unique to them.
So, if you change the template that matches <p> to this:

<xsl:template match="p">
<p-simple<xsl:apply-templates/></p-simple>
</xsl:template>

you'll notice that all the unwanted <p> tags turn to unwanted <p-simple>
tags. They're there because
you asked for them! The other template you have that could match <p> tags is
this one:

<xsl:template match="font/p | center/p | div/p | p/p">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>     

isn't firing for a very simple reason: there are no <p> tags in your source
xml that have font, center, div
or p tags as their parent.

use match="a/br | li/br | br/br", eg.

<xsl:template match="a/br | li/br | br/br">
	Look, no br tag!
	<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

The precedence rules for templates are more specific ones have higher
precedence, and if that doesn't 
decide it, then the one that comes later in the stylesheet takes precedence.

have fun,
