If there is anything you want hissen on your website, there is a tag that will tell the computer to not show that writing. The tag is:
<!-- Whatever you want to hide goes here. -->
Notice that this tag starts out with the open tag (<) followed by an exclamation point and two dashes. Anything that follows this tag will be hidden from view. The only way to stop things from being hidden is to finish off with two more dashes and a closed tag (>).

In between these two tags, you can format your comments any way you'd like. You can leave spaces and everything. Look at the following:
<!--


Notice how much space
is around this comment.



-->
You can do that in your comments if you'd like. You may not put pictures in your comments, and I wouldn't recomment adding extra double-dashes (--) inbetween the first and last tags, but anything else is fair game. Comment tags are good places to put your name and the date, among other things.

I have included a comment tag on this page. Don't see it? That's the point. If you want to, either right-click (click and hold, Mac-o-philes) and click on "view source" or at the top of the page click "view" then "source." You can see exactly how I made this page and also real the comment I put in.
