Given a document, where
1. the content of img @src is empty, and thus invalid,
2. but there is base url which points to an image
Example:
<!DOCUMENT html>
<base href="image.jpg"/>
<img src="" alt="Text." />
Live DOM Viewer test:
http://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/saved/2236
Current UA behaviors:
x) Firefox is the only one to render it the image 'image.jpg'.
y) Webkit/Blink, IE10 and Opera12 render it as the alt text.
Questions:
A) Which of x) and y) is correct?
B) If the correct behavior is already defined in a spec,
where is it defined?
