How do I use comments within a JSP page?
Created May 14, 2012
Govind Seshadri You can use "JSP-style" comments to selectively block out code while debugging
or simply to comment your scriptlets. JSP comments are not visible at the client.
For example:
<%-- the scriptlet is now commented out <% out.println("Hello World"); %> --%>
You can also use HTML-style comments anywhere within your JSP page. These comments are visible at the client. For example:
<!-- (c)1999 jGuru.com -->
Of course, you can also use comments supported by your JSP scripting language within your scriptlets. For example, assuming Java is the scripting language, you can have:
<% //some comment /** yet another comment **/ %>
