I am using the latest version of WordPress (v.2.8.6) and am still getting the same response – as reported here, a year ago.
It appears that although the comment tags work for text, ok,
WordPress chokes on any attempt to comment out certain code.
In my case, I only tried <p> and <address> tags: The following was the result:
This:
‘<!– Comment <address></address> –>’
was changed to this:
‘<p><!– Comment
<address></address>
<p> –></p>’
Is there still no resolution ?
Thanks
