           Summary: Reflecting href with a URL that doesn't resolve
                    doesn't return the empty string in browsers (at least
                    opera/moz, don't know what URL would fail to resolve
                    in webkit). Instead it returns the value without
                    resolving.

string in browsers (at least opera/moz, don't know what URL would fail to
resolve in webkit). Instead it returns the value without resolving.
