Description

Causes comments to be ignored by the JScript parser.

Syntax 1

Single-line Comment:
// comment

Syntax 2

Multiline Comment:
/*
comment
*/

The comment argument is the text of any comment you want to include in your script.

Syntax 3

//@CondStatement

Syntax 4

/*@
CondStatement
@*/

The CondStatement argument is conditional compilation code to be used if conditional compilation is activated. If Syntax 3 is used, there can be no space between the "//" and "@" characters.

Remarks

Use comments to keep parts of a script from being read by the JScript parser. You can use comments to include explanatory remarks in a program.

If Syntax 1 is used, the parser ignores any text between the comment marker and the end of the line. If Syntax 2 is used, it ignores any text between the beginning and end markers. Syntaxes 3 and 4 are used to support conditional compilation while retaining compatibility with browsers that do not support that feature. These browsers treat those forms of comments as syntaxes 1 and 2 respectively.
