>I'm getting line breaks between FNAME, MNAME and LNAME on the first line, and between FNAME and the text on the second. The line break between the two lines is desired, the ones that don't exist in the XSL are not.

Ahhh, got to have the info :-) Have you tried doing this in a browser, seeing if IE5 can do the transformation correctly? I haven't played with using XSL in the XMLDOM itself.
