HttpService not working in<window> in adobe air

Question

I am having a windowed application as my base application. To avoid the tab bar icon for the app in the task bar , I close the native window and open up the contents from another window. Here I will be calling the http service method.But nothing happens,and no error is shown in compile and run time. All the other actions are working fine. why am I not able to call http service within window in adobe air

code in main app to open new window:

public function init():void {

                nativeWindow.close();
                    var newWindow:MyWin = new MyWin();
                newWindow.systemChrome = NativeWindowSystemChrome.NONE;
                newWindow.type = NativeWindowType.LIGHTWEIGHT;
                newWindow.transparent = true;
                newWindow.open(true);   


            }

code for window:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <mx:Window name="MyWin"
               xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"

Try to set your main window visibility to false instead of closing it. I guess it can think that you want to terminate your application (and all child windows of main window are also closed).
