    You are unable to force a browser to show the contents of an HTML comment (<!-- -->) as browsers render what's inside the comments as basically non-existent. Therefore, the comment tags would have to be removed before the markup is sent to the browser either by hand or by server-side script.

    What exactly are you trying to do that makes you want to display what's between the comment tag? Why not just remove the tags all together?

    you can use firbug (mozilla addon) which will allow you to edit a page temporarily at runtime..

    I agree with assistantX, why not just remove the tags if you want to see whats in them?
