How to get the current page url in a django template?

Question

I know that there is another question with almost the same name as mine, but the solution in this does not work for me. My url is as follows:

http://domain.com/videos/dvd/1/ 

If I use either {{baseurl}} or {{ request.get_full_path }} , I get only this part:

 http://domain.com/videos/ 

How can I get the whole url? I need to do this from the template level.

EDIT

PS he should ignore any parameters that may be in the url.

You can get it in your view and pass it into your template context so that it is available to you.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/ref/request-response/#django.http.HttpRequest.build_absolute_uri

 full_url = request.build_absolute_uri(None) # pass full_url into the template context.
