Description

http://jsfiddle.net/jSQ6A/3/

The return value on Chrome (9.0.597.98 stable, but also all other versions) is the full URL. However, it should return the attribute.

Probably very well related: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=42712

Oops, forgot about browser bugs... sorry. Chrome wasn't very responsive on that bug however :|

If you follow the explanation of the attributes and how they are resolved, starting with data, followed by codebase then follow that up by reading:

http://www.w3.org/TR/html40/types.html#type-uri

It appears that data attributes of object elements will return a resolved URI
