Flex: browser popup rather than Alert.show() type popup?

Question

Im trying to create a browser popup window with some text, rather than using the Alert.show() or Flash Player level popups.

I have been looking around, and tried some stuff with URI Data Scheme, but thought one of you guys might have done something similar before.

The following code does the trick:

<fx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
        import flash.net.navigateToURL;

        private function urlJump():void{

            var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("javascript:NewWindow=window.open(''," +
                "'newWin','width=400,height=300,left=0,top=0,toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=No,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No');  " +
                "NewWindow.focus();void(0); " +
                "NewWindow.document.write('hello');");

            navigateToURL(url, "_self" );

        }           
    ]]>
</fx:Script>
<fx:Declarations>
    <!-- Place non-visual elements (e.g., services, value objects) here -->
</fx:Declarations>

<s:Button click="urlJump()" />
