PHP supports 'C', 'C++' and Unix shell-style (Perl style) comments. For example:
<?php echo 'This is a test'; // This is a one-line c++ style comment /* This is a multi line comment yet another line of comment */ echo 'This is yet another test'; echo 'One Final Test'; # This is a shell-style comment ?>
The "one-line" comment styles only comment to the end of
the line or the current block of PHP code, whichever comes first.
This means that HTML code after // ?> WILL be printed:
?> skips out of the PHP mode and returns to HTML mode, and
// cannot influence that.
If asp_tags configuration directive
is enabled, it behaves the same with // %>.
However, </script> tag doesn't escape PHP mode in
one-line comment.
<h1>This is an <?php # echo 'simple';?> example.</h1> <p>The header above will say 'This is an example'.</p>
'C' style comments end by the first encountered */.
You should be careful not to nest 'C' style comments, which can
happen when commenting out large blocks.
<?php /* echo 'This is a test'; /* This comment will cause a problem */ */ ?>
