Answered my own question with the following:
<xsl:template match="stem/text()">
<xsl:analyze-string select="." regex="\t[0-9][0-9]?\.\t">
<xsl:non-matching-substring>
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:non-matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>
</xsl:template>

I am having trouble stripping numbers from a list of items. Here is
a snippet of my xml:
<book>
<stem> 1. Read the sentence... </stem>
<stem> 2. What language is the word <i>defense</i> originally from?
</stem>
</book>
My current template is
<xsl:template match="stem">
<xsl:analyze-string select="." regex="\t[0-9][0-9]?\.\t">
<xsl:non-matching-substring>
<stem><xsl:copy-of select="."/></stem>
</xsl:non-matching-substring>
</xsl:analyze-string>
</xsl:template>
The template does what I want. It removes the tabs, numbers, and
periods. But it also removes the <i> elements so that I end up with
<book>
<stem>Read the sentence... </stem>
<stem>What language is the word defense originally from?</stem>
</book>
How can I strip off the numbers and retain the inline elements of
the <stem> element?
