Forcing links in an SSRS report to open in a new window from within silverlight

I have an SSRS report embedded within a silverlight application and I want the links in that report to open in a new tab.

I already tried the below and they both didn't work :

making the link javascript:void(window.open('http://wwww.google.com')) (It just doesn't execute javascript from within silverlight but when I preview the report in Visual Studio it works)
adding target='_blank' in the href tag
Adding this parameter at the end &rc:LinkTarget=_blank (It opens in the same window)

Any help is appreciated

This should solve in Code behind

 System.Windows.Browser.HtmlPage.Window.Navigate(
   new Uri("http://silverlight.net"),
   "_blank", "height=300,width=600,top=100,left=100");

OR

Don't use href="javascript:void"

It means people without javascript cannot use the link. Use something like this instead.

Then add this to the head of your page

<script>
function myFunction() {
window.open("http://www.w3schools.com");
}
 </script>
  <body>
 <a href="#" onclick="myFunction()">click here</a>
 </body>
