Question
See, I don't even know the proper TERM/S to use!
Here's what I want.
I have a template, and a section of that template has "ever chaning" material.
I would like to be able to make some type of "notation" within the HTML to say "begin C&P here" and "end C&P here" leaving everything above and below those "notations/marks" alone. And I DON'T want that "notation/mark" to show up "online".
Does ANYONE have a CLUE what I'm talking about?
Can anyone point me to some instructions on how to do it?
Thanks in advance for any assistance provided.
(My head's starting to hurt!)
Answer
Here is what my Gemplate has, is this what you mean?
<!-- START ITEM DESCRIPTION -->
<!-- END ITEM DESCRIPTION -->

It SURE is!!!
THANK YOU!!!
That doesn't "show" to others, right.
I'm 100% certain that's what I was looking for!
Now, clue me in - what are those "special instructions which don't show CALLED? I'm SURE there's a proper name for those gizmos.
Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Color me HAPPY!
Answer
They are officially called "comments".
Original, isn't it?
You'll also see them referred to as "remarks" because that's what they are called in some programming languages (and DOS).
Also...if you want to put comments inside a style sheet, you do them like so:
/* this is the comment */
