> <!-- --> is an html tag such as <p>
I've often thought that it should be; but, I've never been able to
convince myself that it is. The reason is this: If an html comment
(e.g., <!-- Comment -->) is an empty ! element (and as such has only
one tag); then, why wouldn't we have to say, "<!-- Comment -- />? So,
I conclude that it's very close to being an empty element; but, it
isn't quite.
WRT my original question, I think my problem was that I forgot that an
html comment may not include any embedded -- or >. I violated the
later.
I don't want to dwell on this since it has been pointed out to me that
it's off topic. I do appreciate the latitude of the list in
considering my question. Thanks to all for the input.
