Defer JavaScript doesn't defer a script tag if it has the data-pagespeed-no-defer attribute (preferred) or pagespeed_no_defer attribute (deprecated). This is useful when a script tag needs to be executed while loading the page. For example, a script tag may be updating the main content dynamically as a slideshow of images in the visible content of the page. Usage:
<script data-pagespeed-no-defer>...</script>
