You cannot hide the address bar using Javascript.

However, in your case, instead of creating a Javascript popup, you can display your swf file inside a div, which you make visible using Javascript. This will create an illusional popup without address bar.

Your div can then have a close button and a title bar, mimicking a real popup. Besides, you can also specify a unique layout; when using a Javascript popup you are stuck with your browser's title bar.
