Add/remove DOCTYPE tag to observe broken close comment tag, or 1. Change -- to - in the commented text. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Test Comment</title> </head> <body> <p>Something</p> <!-- <p>Try with double or single--dash?</p> --> <p>Else</p> </body> </html> Actual Results: Something --> Else (versus) Something Else Expected Results: Something Else
