you presumably mean select not match (which is a syntax error) and it's
generally a bad idea (slower and not namespace-aware0 to text eleemnt
names using name() why not simply

<xsl:apply-templates select="Records/Record/firstName"/>

I can't guess what kind of conflict you see here, could you post a
slightly larger XML that also has elements that you wouldn't want to
select.

> Then do <xsl:apply-templates

again use of match here.
