           Summary: getComputedStyle returns "left" instead of "none" for

http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-positioning/ Section 8:
> if ‘position’ has the value absolute, page or fixed, and the value of float is left or right, the box is absolutely positioned and the computed value of float is none.

Webkit incorrectly returns "left". This has surfaced as a jQuery bug: http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/13126#comment:1

Here's a jsfiddle demonstrating the problem: http://jsfiddle.net/ChPCD/7/ Note the output says "left" for "absolute" instead of "none". 

The same test case returns correct values in FF15, Opera 12, and IE9+
