Mozilla does not support the "defer" attribute of the <script> element
(http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/scripts.html#adef-defer).

It's optional, and not very important. I think it only exists so Internet
Explorer 4.0 can render JavaScript-heavy pages slightly faster. Setting priority
to low and severity to enhancement.
Severity: normal → enhancement
OS: Windows 2000 → All
Priority: -- → P5
Summary: "defer" attribute of <script> not supported → Execution of <script defer> scripts not deferred
See bug 28293 (RFE: defer attribute not supported on script elements)

This is a dupe, though it doesn't look like it will be added soon as other
things have taken higher priority.  The blocker bugs should be removed from this
bug and added to bug 28293.
