Yah this isn't really going to be possible in a web application using Flex (not truly possible at least). If the contents at the URL are just XML or you roll your own HTML parser to extract the data points you want to show from the HTML/XML (since generally HTML 4 is valid XML you can use E4X to parse the HTML which is nice) then create a custom display object extension to show the contents your interested in at the URL. In terms of just displaying the HTML straight up Flex has a HTMLLoader class but it's part of the AIR sdk/swcs specifically so it'll only work for desktop applications (even so I'm not sure I would tell someone this would work without having truly tried it, getting the HTMLLoader to work in the context of an info window might bring about headaches than it's worth). As a hacky alternative you can look up Flex IFrame for how to get an IFrame floating over your flex app then position/size it in accordance with the info window. http://code.google.com/p/flex-iframe/ As Thiago said if you come up with something better please post back as this is the best solution to HTML in Flex that I've personally seen and I still don't like it (quite problematic/buggy have to do weird invalidations sometimes among other interactivity issues).
