Add an 'async' attribute to a JS include tag in asp.net web forms

Question

I saw how it can be done in MVC, but for a specific project I'm using Web-Forms.

I have

<asp:PlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolder1" runat="server">
    <%: System.Web.Optimization.Scripts.Render("~/file.js") %>
</asp:PlaceHolder>

which generates the html:

<script src="/file.js?v=5jui8vHEj5_iAkaGiAccPPb2LcsdK1jQ1"></script>

I wish to add the sync attribute to the above tag.

I'd appreciate some guidance. Thanks.

You can use RenderFormat to achieve this:

 <%: System.Web.Optimization.Scripts.RenderFormat ("<script src='{0}' async ></script>", "~/file.js") %>

Renders as: <script src="/file.js" async=""></script>

Thanks. I couldnt find RenderFormat until I realized it's only available in v. 1.1.0 of Web.Optimization – Hans Webb Sep 03 '13 at 20:35
