HeadJS Loader WordPress Plugin
This plugin reformats your page to utilize Head JS in your WordPress site.
Caution: this plugin can cause major issues with the javascript on your site if not implemented properly. Please be sure to test on a development server first
It strips out all your old javascript declarations and puts them into head.js calls so that they are loaded in parallel (see the Head JS website for more details).
Optionally you can wrap all your inline javascript with head.ready calls.
For example, this:
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://yoururl.com/wp-includes/js/prototype.js?ver=1.6.1'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js?ver=3.0.4'></sSites running HeadJS Loader, click to open one
