<tab><a href=ST107V1.html target='_blank'>MLV1F107</><tab>
If this is prototypical [they all have the XXX.html as the href, and
the target is always '_blank', then search for:
<a href=.{4,10}\.html target='_blank' (.{4,10})</>
and replace with:
\1
My assumptions are:
1. The "ST107V1" bit is between 4 and 10 characters long, always.
2. The "MLV1F107" bit is the same.
