I am unable to assign a target of _blank in a Dojo LinkContainer

I'm using a Dojo LinkContainer within an AccordionContainer. My goal is to have the link open a PDF in a new window, but the target property in the link doesn't seem to have any effect.

<a href="ermHelp.pdf" target="_blank" data-dojo-type="dijit/layout/LinkPane">
    Using the Environmental Resource Mapper
</a>

Any ideas as to how I can get this to work?

Looking at the documentation it seems that the LinkPane works by replacing the content of the HTML element with the content in the link - in your case the PDF file.

Since your intention is to just open a file in a new window, you could just remove the data-dojo-type attribute and then it should work as expected.
