Open in new browser window

I use hyperlinks in my generated pdf. The report is part of a webapp and i open the pdf inline in a browser window. The report contains hyperlink that points to a report that shows more detail. My problem is that when the hyperlink is clicked on it opens the report in the same window, therefore discarding my master report. I cannot use the back button to get back to my master report because the form with the parameters no longer exists and the report cannot be generated again. If i could open the detail report in a new window it would be fixed. Is this possible with jasperreports and how?? can you specify a target in the link??

This is how I did it in the browser

 

Under Hyperlink Reference Expression

 

"/maps/displayLocationsOnMap.do?&vehicleRid=" + $F{id} + "&mobileNumber=" + $F{mobileNumber} + "" target="_top"" + " onclick="javascript:parent.startWait();"

 

By replacing _top with _blank I think it should work.
