domain policy file. In SWF files of any version running in Flash Player 7 and later, the
parameter must be in exactly the same domain. For example, a SWF file at
www.someDomain.com can load data only from sources that are also at
www.someDomain.com.
In SWF files running in a version of the player earlier than Flash Player 7, the

derived by removing the leftmost component of a file's URL. For example, a SWF file at
www.someDomain.com can load data from sources at store.someDomain.com, because both
files are in the same superdomain of someDomain.com.
Availability: ActionScript 1.0; Flash Player 5 - The behavior changed in Flash Player 7.
