Don't use it.  |
<COMMENT> is an old Mosaic and Microsoft Internet Explorer tag. It's a nice tag, but it was implemented in a weird way and never really caught on. Don't use it. <COMMENT> causes the browser to ignore everything between <COMMENT> and </COMMENT>. Unfortunately, because Netscape does not recognize the tag, most people will see those embarrassing comments:

- stop writing pages in the nude
- learn to spell

</COMMENT>
prints the GOT part:
