Web and WebWorks Development

Has anyone launched App World to one title from javascript.  I tried this on dev alpha and it isn't working :

function openWebLinkInBrowser(URL) {
    // open web link in browser
    blackberry.invoke.invoke({
        target: "sys.browser",
        uri:URL
    }, onInvokeSuccess, onInvokeError);
}



function appWorld(appId)
{
   try 
   {
	
	var url = "http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/" + appId;
	openWebLinkInBrowser (url) ; 
	
	
   } 
   catch (e) {
	showCustomToast("There was a problem launching App World", "OK");
   }
}

This works in playbook to open at a specific app.

var url = "http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/103601";
       
    try {
        var args = new blackberry.invoke.BrowserArguments(url);
        blackberry.invoke.invoke(blackberry.invoke.APP_BROWSER, args);
    }
    catch (e) {
        alert('exception (Appworld): ' + e.name + '; ' + e.message);
    }
}

I use something similar to this in Cascades and it works.....but not working in Webworks.....perhaps I have a parameter wrong :

var request = {
"type": "application/x-bb-appworld",
"uri": "appworld://content/12603",
"action": "bb.action.OPEN",
"action_type": "ALL"
};
blackberry.invoke.query(request, onInvokeSuccess, onInvokeError);

Here is some documentation from Cascades that describes the invoke targets... https://developer.blackberry.com/cascades/documentation/device_platform/invocation/blackberry_world....

You can do it by issueing the following which is an un-bound. As you can see from the documentation you can also add in the target if you wish, but the uri protocol is the important part.

blackberry.invoke.invoke({
    "uri": "appworld://content/12603",
    "action": "bb.action.OPEN", 
    "action_type": "ALL"
})

Please replace the 12603 with the content you wish to show.
