text in code commented out

Recommended Posts

In some of my files I like to add some comments for my information only. I have seen in many of the contributions they make comments but is commented out. For example:

 

/** begin text notes **/

/** end text notes **/

 

//Begin text

//End text

 

I was using this method: /** begin of text **/

/** End of text *//

 

But then viewing page, that piece of code is on the page. So how does one know which method to use and when?

 

Thanks.

Probably depends if it is contained within start and end php tags

 

<?php

 

/* this is comment

and so is this

*/

 

?>

You're confusing PHP comments with HTML comments...

:blush:

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

I am aware that if one wants to comment text out in PHP and html is done different. I was having trouble within the HTML scetion. After several tries, I was abble to solve it. Did as below:

 

<!-- /** Begin Text Text Text ***/ //-->

 

<!-- /** End Text Text Text ***/ //-->

 

Thanks.
