Alright, I had a theory that if you were to try and load a relative file that didn't exist, you might be able to catch the path within the MovieClipLoader.onLoadError() event, by reading the ._url property of the movieclip that you were trying to load into. This seems to be working fine, if there is no documented way to read the property, then I will continue this way.
Here is a preview, notice the swf is being called remotely: http://lab-media.com/test This is the code: var myListener:Object = new Object (); var servedToUrl:String = ""; var my_mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader (); var myListener:Object = new Object (); myListener.onLoadError = function (target_mc:MovieClip, errorCode:String) { servingUrl = target_mc._url.substr (0, target_mc._url.indexOf ("SomeFileThatDoesntExist")); }; my_mcl.addListener (myListener); this.createEmptyMovieClip ("clip1_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth ()); my_mcl.loadClip ("SomeFileThatDoesntExist", clip1_mc); Thx!
