Block comment in rhtml file

Rails
1

Hi all,

Is there tags for block comment in rhtml, so that I can comment out a
block of code (mainly for testing/debuging)?

html comment can't prevent ERb code from processed

<%# text inside become comment %> only comment out the the tag

It’s quite inconvenient not to have such facility.

Thanks,

You mean like:

<% if false -%>
…everything skipped…
<% end -%>

Hi Michael,

It’s something like that, but your suggestion is just a workaround.
There’s no built-in in rhtml to do this? I want the editor to mark it
as comment also.

In Java JSP files, you have <%-- comment --%>

However your way is useful at some level.

Thanks,

Nope, doesn’t work.
