comment

I. Description

The HTML 'comment' element is used to add comments to an HTML document. Comments begin with the sequence <!-- and end with the sequence -->. Comments may span multiple lines. Comments are not rendered, and are in no way visible to someone viewing an HTML document in a web browser. In order to read comments you must look at the source code for the HTML page.

II. Examples

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>Example Page</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h1>Example HTML Page</h1>
        <!-- This is a comment -->
        <p>This HTML document has a comment in it.</p>
    </body>
</html>
