HTML Comments Code
When coding HTML, you might want to place a comment in the code. An HTML comment is some text that is hidden from normal web visitors when they view your website in a browser. Note: They can still see your HTML comments if they "view source" though.
You can use the following HTML code to hide comments within your HTML document.
Example HTML Comments Code:
To hide text within your html codes, you simply surround it with opening and closing comment tags. The opening comment tag is <!-- and the closing tag is -->. Everything in between is hidden from the user (although they could still see it if they view the source code of the page).
| Code | Result |

The browser will display this comment because it is not surrounded by comment code. |
You'll notice that the first comment was not displayed by the browser (because it was wrapped within the HTML comment code).
