If you are using XSLT2 (ie saxon8) you could do

...

<xsl:import href="http://www.dcarlisle.demon.co.uk/htmlparse.xsl"/>

...

<xsl:template match="...">
...
<xsl:copy-of select="d:htmlparse(unparsed-text('file-with-html-in-it.html','ISO-8859-1'))"/>

...
</xsl:template>


</xsl:stylesheet>


For XSLT1 you really need to convert your file to well formed xml first
tidy or tagsoup could do this (see google for URLs for these)
