multiline comment php code example

Example 1: comment php

// This is a single-line comment
# This is also a single-line comment
/*
This is a multiple-lines comment block
that spans over multiple
lines
*/

Example 2: comment in php

Notes can come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. They vary, and their uses are completely up to the person writing the code. However, I try to keep things consistent in my code that way it's easy for the next person to read. So something like this might help...

<?php

//======================================================================
// CATEGORY LARGE FONT
//======================================================================

//-----------------------------------------------------
// Sub-Category Smaller Font
//-----------------------------------------------------

/* Title Here Notice the First Letters are Capitalized */

# Option 1
# Option 2
# Option 3

/*
 * This is a detailed explanation
 * of something that should require
 * several paragraphs of information.
 */
 
// This is a single line quote.
?>

Example 3: multiple comments in php

<?php
/*
This is a multiple-lines comment block
that spans over multiple
lines
*/
?>

Example 4: comment in php

MSpreij (8-May-2005) says  /* .. */ overrides //  
Anonymous (26-Jan-2006) says // overrides /* .. */

Actually, both are correct. Once a comment is opened, *everything* is ignored until the end of the comment (or the end of the php block) is reached.

Thus, if a comment is opened with: 
   //  then /* and */ are "overridden" until after end-of-line 
   /*  then // is "overridden" until after */
