This is a cf mailing list not a php mailing list. :P
Anyway, to answer your question that's used for commenting out blocks of
php. Which could include html
Ie; if you wanted to comment out the whole php block...
<?php
echo "alkemadesigns.com"; // php block
?>
<p>
<a href="http://www.alkemadesigns.com">Alkema Designs</a><!-- html
block -->
</p>
You could select the whole php block then select the <?php /*?><?php */?>
comment box in Dreamweaver and it would comment out the whole block
including
<?php /*?><?php
echo "test";
?><?php */?>

Subject: (ot) php commenting
Not CF related, but does anyone know what this is.
When editing a php file in Dreamweaver, when you click on the comments
button, you also get a choice that results in this:
<?php /*?><?php */?>
I can't find that documented anywhere and I guess I am just curious. It
does result in an error on my server so I've learned to ignore it, but I
am still wondering why it is there and what the heck it is.
