How to comment on IE conditional comments?

Question

I'm just wondering if it is possible to comment on IE conditional comments themselves (for testing purposes)? The following does not work:

<!-- <!--[if IE 7]> some code <![endif]--> -->

Thanks in advance! Flexx

Answer 1

No, It is Immpossible.

SGML / HTML / XML / XHTML comments cannot be nested.

Answer 2

I think you can just insert something to invalidate them:

<!--\[if IE 7]> some code <!\[endif]-->

Answer 3

<!--[if IE 70]> some code <![endif]-->

Answer 6

You cannot insert comments, but you can comment on them by adding an extra <!--to the beginning. Your example above varies from <!-- <!--[if IE 7]> some code <![endif]--> -->to <!-- <!--[if IE 7]> some code <![endif]-->. Just take out the excess -->, and he should comment on this disgusting conditional.
