Fixing XHTML Parsing Error on Chrome: "Specification mandate value for attribute async"

This error message on Google Chrome console:

Specification mandate value for attribute async

That would happen if we generated XML page which acted as HTML, or XHTML. And we forgot to define the value for a particular HTML element attribute.

In this case, the value for async attribute (in script element).

On other browser

On Firefox or IE10+ or Safari or other, it has different error message. But that's the general method to fix it.
