RooZ Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 I've been designing web sites for years, but I've never worked out why after <script> tags some people add <!-- and before </script> they add //--> I always thought of it as just compatibility with old browsers, because you don't see it as much these days, but still, I'm wondering what the actual use for it is.
