Are there really all those quotes around the URL?

I tried this but doesn't work

What does "doesn't work" mean? What does happen? How does that differ from what you want to happen?

Do you get any error messages? If you did, did you read them? They would at least give you a clue what is wrong. If reading them doesn't help, them post them!!

Code:
cat mylist9.html |sed -e '<a href="' >mylist13.html


There's no need for cat:

Code:
sed -e '<a href="' mylist9.html >mylist13.html

But that is not a valid sed command.

vtysh

VTYSH(1)                                                          Version 0.96.5                                                          VTYSH(1)

NAME

       vtysh - a integrated shell for Quagga routing software

SYNOPSIS

       vtysh [ -b ]
       vtysh [ -E ] [ -d daemon ] ] [ -c command ]

DESCRIPTION

       vtysh is a integrated shell for Quagga routing engine.

OPTIONS

       Options available for the vtysh command:

       -b, --boot
              Execute  boot  startup configuration. It makes sense only if integrated config file is in use (not default in Quagga). See Info file
              Quagga for more info.

       -c, --command command
              Specify command to be executed under batch mode. It behaves like -c option in any other shell - command is executed and vtysh exits.

              It's useful for gathering info from Quagga routing software or reconfiguring daemons from inside shell scripts, etc.  Note that mul-
              tiple commands may be executed by using more than one -c option and/or embedding linefeed characters inside the command string.

       -d, --daemon daemon_name
              Specify  which  daemon to connect to.  By default, vtysh attempts to connect to all Quagga daemons running on the system.  With this
              flag, one can specify a single daemon to connect to instead.  For example, specifying '-d ospfd' will connect only to  ospfd.   This
              can be particularly useful inside scripts with -c where the command is targeted for a single daemon.

       -e, --execute command
              Alias  for  -c.  It's  here  only  for  compatibility with Zebra routing software and older Quagga versions. This will be removed in
              future.

       -E, --echo
              When the -c option is being used, this flag will cause the standard vtysh prompt and command to be echoed prior  to  displaying  the
              results.  This is particularly useful to separate the results when executing multiple commands.

       -h, --help
              Display a usage message on standard output and exit.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       VTYSH_PAGER
              This should be the name of the pager to use. Default is more.

FILES

       /usr/local/etc/vtysh.conf
              The default location of the vtysh config file.

       /usr/local/etc/Quagga.conf
              The default location of the integrated Quagga routing engine config file if integrated config file is in use (not default).

WARNING

       This man page is intended to be a quick reference for command line options. The definitive document is the Info file Quagga.
