Building of off an earlier example, I think there is a cleaner way of doing this. Create an index.html file in your project and using Stephen's code from above, just convert it into an HTML doc.

Then, in your Code.gs script, you can have something like the following,

function getUrl() {
  return 'http://whatever.com';
}

function openUrl() {
  var html = HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile("index");
  html.setWidth(90).setHeight(1);
  var ui = SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showModalDialog(html, "Opening ..." );
}
