First, I apologize for the delayed response- I'm in digest mode. Thanks for the suggestions. Regarding the fact that I cannot do what I want by default since I'm using Cmd-L to select the entire line, this inability is new to (or at least a change with) recent versions of BBEdit. I have an older version of BBEdit (8.2.6) running on a old computer (OSX 10.3.9), and doing Cmd-L followed by Un/Comment selection works exactly as I want

On my machine, 8.2.6 behaves the same as 8.6.1.

the starting and ending comments are all on the same line. However on my new computer (BBEdit 8.6.1 on 10.4.8) doing the exact same procedure results in the command being on three lines. On that older BBEdit I had the commenting set (under Tools > Un/Comment Settings) such that the starting and ending tags were specified. As I noted previously, the preferences in the current version of BBEdit doesn't list anything for the CSS starting and ending tags, and the boxes are actually grayed out.

I guess my question is simply can I get the old functionality back?

With 8.6.1, there is no configuration option which will do what you want; you'll have to use a script or #! filter.

BBEdit will put the comment delimiters on separate lines for when the comment is at least one line long, and will put them on the same line for a partial line CSS comment.

I will review the behavior of the single-line case. (Note: this is not a promise that the behavior is going to change, but it will be reviewed.)
