I need to use a Popup Manager in an Actionscript 3.0 Project. Is there an equivalent?

@TessandraFae:
Flex includes a whole windowing framework, including a popup manager, that can be used in ActionScript 3.0. For Flash CS3's ActionScript 3.0 components, the decision was made to keep the components simple and lightweight -- they only include user interface controls, they can be skinned visually in the authoring tool, but they don't include any components for layout or windows (such as popup windows and the PopupManager component).

Is there an equivalent to the PopupManager class for use in Flash CS3? I am not using Flex, but would still like to create popup windows within my Flash application.

I too am looking to convert my ActionScript 2.0 files to ActionScript 3.0, and can find no reference material on how to create the equivalent of a Popup Windows. Are we missing something?
