Re: Bug #12323 Updated: "//" comment tag does not work

The lines I have commented are all on their own line and are one liners. More or less, anywhere I use a "//" to comment, the entire line is displayed to the user. The following two scripts will give me the same result. <?php // This comment will show on the web page ?> <?php print('// This comment will show on the web page'); ?> I noticed in the documentation that the "//" was considered a C++ style of commenting. Do I possibly need a particular module or directive to say that "//" is a comment?
