New pop up window link in a function

Another simple problem that i'm sure has an easy answer....
how do i set each link to open in a new window. the forums all talk about doing this with something similar to:
var link = new Active.Templates.Link;
link.setAttribute("target", "_new");

But for some reason I can't make it implement when using a "function" rather than the above code? Every time I try to paste the above code into my example below it breaks.

Basically all i need is to open a link in a new window for each of the following columns...sorry again for the lack of programming knowledge...
// COLUMN 14 LINK
    var myLinks = function(column, row){
return "http://maps.google.com";
    }

    obj.setCellLink(myLinks, 14);
    obj.setCellTemplate(new AW.Templates.Link, 14);

// COLUMN 15 LINK
    var myLinks = function(column, row){
return "http://www.google.com";
    }

    obj.setCellLink(myLinks, 15);
    obj.setCellTemplate(new AW.Templates.Link, 15);


    // COLUMN 16 LINK
    var myLinks = function(column, row){
return "https://www.google.com";
    }

    obj.setCellLink(myLinks, 16);
    obj.setCellTemplate(new AW.Templates.Link, 16);

thank you in advance!!!

nevermind....

i added this to the end and it works fine.

obj.setAttribute("target", "_new");

so...

// COLUMN 16 LINK
var myLinks = function(column, row){
return "https://www.google.com";
}

obj.setCellLink(myLinks, 16);
obj.setCellTemplate(new AW.Templates.Link, 16);
    obj.setAttribute("target", "_new");

You should add 'target' attribute to the link template, not to the grid -
