Imagine you have the following code:

JavaScript

If you want the div to be echoed but not displayed at the page, you’ll comment html, PHP still gets executed:

JavaScript

If you don’t want the div to appear at the source as commented html, you’ll have to comment php, nothing will appear between the body tags at your source:

JavaScript
