Like hide text that you can display later or something? Or just a comment?

Comment:

<?php

# This is a comment.
# To use a comment, use the hash (#)
# character. The comment ends at the end of the line.
#

?>

Display later?:

<?php

function displayThisText(){
echo "blahblah";
}
?>

Write your file and save it as its own .php/.phtml or whatever

then in your html call it
<?
require('file.phtml');
?>

or however else and it will hide all your code (well it should).:confused:

No it won't. :confused2

View source will still show the content.
