I was trying to use the Logical Operator "OR" ("||") but could only
get it to work with one pipe ("|"). Simple I wanted to say when
either the "#area p" OR "span" tag is clicked run the code.
CDATA is the XML way of escaping. Essentially, everything inside a
CDATA section is ignored by the parser. And it's been said that it's
the MORE correct or proper way to comment out script.
A CDATA section starts with "<![CDATA[" and ends with "]]>". In
addition, you have to add /* */ around the CDATA for the browser to
ignore it.
