Description
The HTML 'comments' tag is used for creating comments within your HTML code.
The comments tag is not actually an HTML element (it is specified elsewhere in the HTML specifications). However, comments are an integral part of any HTML document. They allow the author to add comments that aren't displayed to the end users. These comments can assist the author in understanding the code. This is particularly useful if there's a lot of code, the author is new to a website, or if the author is modifying an HTML document that he/she hasn't updated for a long time, and needs a reminder about what various parts do.
Syntax
The
Comments tag is written as <!-- --> with the comments inserted between the start and end tags. Note that the exclamation mark is only used in the start tag.<!-- Comments here... -->
