Build ID: 2012071300

Steps to reproduce:

<!doctype html>
<html>
        <head>
        </head>
        <body>
                <div id="test">
                        <h2>background should be green</h2>
                </div>
                <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
                <script>
                        var green = 'data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAYAAAAfFcSJAAAADUlEQVQImWNgaGD4DwAChAGA2FJdiQAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==';
                        var red = 'data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAYAAAAfFcSJAAAADUlEQVQImWP4z8DwHwAFAAH/q842iQAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==';
                        $(function() {
                                var $t = $("#test");
                                $t.css('background-image', 'url("' + green + '")');
                                $t.css('background-image', 'url("' + red + '"'); // ) is missing
                        })
                </script>
        </body>
</html>


Actual results:

the second invalid attempt to set the background image is accepted too (IE9 and Chrome 21 both reject it)



Expected results:

background green
should have thrown syntax error ? (not sure i would want that tough)

The spec requires this behavior.  Yes, IE and Chrome get it wrong.

Specifically, see http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#parsing-errors under "Unexpected end of style sheet".

And note that you don't even need the dynamic stuff.  Just doing:

<style>
  body { background-image: url("something.png"</style>

will trigger the relevant error-handling codepath in UAs that implement the spec properly.
