There are many different languages that use different comment structures. Some have single in-line comments. Some have multiple line comments. Many have both functions.
Here are some examples of comments for code that we support on our hosting packages.
Contents
HTML
HTML only has a multiple line comment structure. But it can be used for both single lines and multiple lines.
Single Line
<!-- This is a single line of comments -->
Multiple lines
<!-- This is multiple lines of comments -->
ColdFusion
ColdFusion, much like HTML, only has a multiple line comment structure as well. There is a key difference though. ColdFusion requires the three dashes ("---") rather than the two that HTML uses.
Single Line
<!--- This is a single line of comments --->
Multiple lines
<!--- This is multiple lines of comments --->
PHP
PHP does have the option of two single line comment structures, or a single multiple line comments.
Single Line
// This is a single line of comments
Single Line (Shell option)
# This is a single line of comments
Multiple lines
/* This is multiple lines of comments */
Javascript
Javascript has one convention for single lines, and one convention for multiple lines.
Single Line
// This is a single line of comments
Multiple lines
/* This is multiple lines of comments */
CSS
CSS only has a multi line convention as well, and can be used as such.
Single Line
/* This is a single line of comments */
Multiple lines
/* This is multiple lines of comments */
Ruby
Ruby does have its own unique multi-line comment structure. It also has a single line comment feature that is fairly standard.
Single Line
# This is a single line of comments
Multiple Lines
=begin This is multiple lines of comments =end
Perl
Perl has only one comment structure, and that is a single line comment.
Single line
# This is a single line of comments
ASP
ASP has one single line comment structure as well. It can be a little trickier to spot, but it is a single quote at the very beginning of the line.
Single Line
'This is a single line of comments
