I know I have seen the answer to this question before, but I can not seem to find it. I even thought it was on this site. Well anyway, how do you get the url of the where the current swf is located. Say test.swf is on [www.kirupa.com](http://www.kirupa.com). In test.swf how do you get the url [www.kirupa.com](http://www.kirupa.com)? If I remember right there is a very very simple answer. :S

Thanks!
