Found this and added to .xsl; not sure how to call it?
<xsl:template name="removeHtmlTags">
<xsl:param name="html"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="contains($html, '<')">
<xsl:value-of select="substring-before($html, '<')"/>
<!-- Recurse through HTML -->
<xsl:call-template name="removeHtmlTags">
<xsl:with-param name="html" select="substring-after($html, '>')"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:value-of select="$html"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
