I'm trying to defer a very simple jQuery test, in order to optimize the speed of my website:
This is the jQuery test:
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Defer</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.2.6/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">$(document).ready(function(){$("#jquerytext").html("Hello World by JQuery");});</script>
Hello World by HTML
<div id="jquerytext"></div>
</body>
</html>
It works correctly. However, if I change the call to the jQuery libraries:
<script defer src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.2.6/jquery.min.js"></script>
it won't work.
Am I doing something wrong? Thank you.
