What is the call to open a Facebook Share dialog from a flash application on a profile tab?

Good Evening!

I am trying to open a facebook sharing dialog from my flash application. With my existing code, it opens the share dialog in a new window, I can't seem to get it to open in the parent window. Here is the code that I am using:

function shareClickHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void
{
var varsShare:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
varsShare.u = 'http://domain.com/pageN.html';
varsShare.t = 'Title Page';

var urlFacebookShare:URLRequest = new URLRequest('http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php');
urlFacebookShare.data = varsShare;
urlFacebookShare.method = URLRequestMethod.GET;

navigateToURL(urlFacebookShare);
}

Thanks!

function showShareDialog() {
var strWindowFeatures;
/strWindowFeatures = "toolbar=no,menubar=no,dependent=yes,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,status=no,location=no,top=50px,left=80px,directories=no,width=650,height=300";

window.open("http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=yoururltoshare", "test", strWindowFeatures);
}

Good Morning HBP,

Thanks for the script, this is giving me a compile error. Is this AS2 or AS3? I need it to work in AS3.

Thanks!
