    The <!-- and --> are HTML comments and are completely ignored regardless of what's inside. They are there for web developers to comment their code to make it easier for other to read.

    I think a long long time ago (in a galaxy far far away), HTML comments were actually read by search engines and some webmasters used to stuff keywords in there but this is now a thing of the past.

    Even if there were not in commentary markers, it would do nothing (except print a text) :)
