JavaScript question

[greka]

PHP Code:

<script Language="JavaScript1.3">
<!--
  function JSVer(){
    return "1.3"
    }
//-->
</SCRIPT> 


could anybody tell me the reason why the script code placed into <!-- --> ?

I've tried to run the function without that symbols:

PHP Code:

<script Language="JavaScript1.3">
  function JSVer(){
    return "1.3"
    }
</SCRIPT> 


and all went fine.

it should be commented for not to be considered as html for some browsers.

some browsers doesn't support JS or CSS.
That's why u must include your JS code into comments and then that kind of browsers will ignore JS code parsing.
