Image Absolute source path with jQuery

Question

This code gives something like ../movies/1.png, the exact src attribute:

$("img").attr("src");

How do I get absolute path of an image with jQuery?

I want to get something like http://site.com/movies/1.png, not ../movies/1.png

This can easily be done by accessing the .src property directly on the <img>:

$('img')[0].src;

(^{I didn't test it on all browser right now})
