Synopsis

<COMMENT>...</COMMENT>

End Tag: Required

The COMMENT element is an artifact of early Internet Explorer browsers and is now obsolete. It was intended as a plain-language tag alternate to the <!--comment--> comment element. The browser did not render content inside the COMMENT element. Internet Explorer 4 supports this element only for backward compatibility, although it also implements some modern attributes (ID, LANG, and TITLE). Do not use this element. Further details are omitted here to reduce the incentive to use the element.
