I need to edit ready jquery script so it doen't result in <a> tag, but just in plain text [требует правки]

The resulting code is in the following variable: +todayEvents+ I am really new to JQuery. How do i get it to output simple text?

(function($) { 
function calendarWidget(el, params) { 
    var now   = new Date();
    var thismonth = now.getMonth();
    var thisyear  = now.getFullYear();
    var opts = {
        month: thismonth,
        year: thisyear
    };

    $.extend(opts, params);
    var monthNames = ['Январь', 'Февраль', 'Март', 'Апрель', 'Май', 'Июнь', 'Июль', 'Август', 'Сентябрь', 'Октябрь', 'Ноябрь', 'Декабрь'];
    var dayNames = ['Пн', 'Вт', 'Ср', 'Чт', 'Пт', 'Сб', 'Вс'];
    month = i = parseInt(opts.month);
    year = parseInt(opts.year);
    var m = 0;
    var table = '';

    table += ('<h3 id="current-month">'+monthNames[month]+' '+year+'</h3>');
    table += ('<table class="calendar-month " ' +'id="calendar-month'+i+' " cellspacing="0">');
    table += '<tr>';
    for (d=0; d<7; d++) {
        table += '<th class="weekday">' + dayNames[d] + '</th>';
    }
    table += '</tr>';
    var days = getDaysInMonth(month,year);
    var firstDayDate=new Date(year,month,1);
    var firstDay=firstDayDate.getDay();
    var prev_days = getDaysInMonth(month,year);
    var firstDayDate=new Date(year,month,1);
    var firstDay=firstDayDate.getDay()-1;
    var prev_m = month == 0 ? 11 : month-1;
    var prev_y = prev_m == 11 ? year - 1 : year;
    var prev_days = getDaysInMonth(prev_m, prev_y);
    firstDay = (firstDay == 0 && firstDayDate) ? 7 : firstDay;
    //sunday should be day 7 (index 6)
    if(firstDay == -1) {
        firstDay = 6;
    }
    var i = 0;
    for (j=0;j<42;j++) {
        if ((j<firstDay)) {
                table += ('<td class="other-month"><span class="day">'+ (prev_days-firstDay+j+1) +'</span></td>');
        } else if ((j>=firstDay+getDaysInMonth(month,year))) {
            i = i+1;
            table += ('<td class="other-month"><span class="day">'+ i +'</span></td>');
        } else {
            table += ('<td class="current-month day'+(j-firstDay+1)+'">'+thisMonthDay(j-firstDay+1)+'</td>');
        }
        if (j%7==6)  table += ('</tr>');
    }
    table += ('</table>');
    el.html(table);
}
function getDaysInMonth(month,year) {
    var daysInMonth=[31,28,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31];
    if ((month==1)&&(year%4==0)&&((year%100!=0)||(year%400==0))){
      return 29;
    }else{
      return daysInMonth[month];
    }
}
//show day in this month including events
function thisMonthDay(day) {
    if(monthEvents[day]) {
        var todayEvents = '';
        for(i=0; i < monthEvents[day].length; i++) {
            todayEvents += monthEvents[day][i].html;
        }
        return '<div class="day hasEvents">'+day+'<div class="events">'+todayEvents+'</div></div>';
    }
    else {
        return '<span class="day">'+day+'</span>';
    }
}
// jQuery plugin initialisation
$.fn.calendarWidget = function(params) {    
    calendarWidget(this, params);       
    return this; 
}; 

})(jQuery);
