<!-- Minor question:
Is there a better way to do this than using 'local' variables?-->
<xsl:variable name="IND_NAME">
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
</xsl:variable>
If you _did_ need a variable then you should not define it like that: as
it makes a result tree fragment which you don't need, you would just do
<!-- Minor question:

<xsl:variable name="IND_NAME" select="name()"/>
But you should almost never test on name() that is just re-implementing
(inefficiently, and in a way that is not namespace-safe) template
matching.
<xsl:variable name="CURRENT_NODE">
<xsl:value-of select="node()"/>
</xsl:variable>
That confusingly does not define CURRENT_NODE to be the current node
(to do that you would do
<xsl:variable name="CURRENT_NODE" select="."/>
It defines it to be a result tree fragment representing _copies_ of
_children_ of the current node.
so don't do this
<xsl:when test="$IND_NAME='NAME_MIDDLE'">
<abc:field name="THE_ALIAS" number="2">
you could do
<xsl:when test="self::NAME_MIDDLE">
<abc:field name="THE_ALIAS" number="2">
But that, as I say is just a poir man's version of template matching so
get rid of teh whole xsl:choose and just have
<xsl:template match="NAME_MIDDLE">
....
<xsl:when test="$IND_NAME='NAME_PREFIX'">
So the current node here is NAME_PREFIX
<xsl:apply-templates select="ALIAS" />
so the above line applies templates to all the ALIAS element children of
the NAME_PREFIX element, but there are none. You presumably want to
apply templates to ../ALIAS not ALIAS as ALIAS is your brother not your
child.
