Comments in source

[troymc]

Ok, I like to comment my source. That way I know what colour pill I took just before I wrote that particular section of code/prose.

However, something in Sigil (HTML Tidy?) seems to think it knows where my comments go better than I do.

It seems to always move my comments and append them the line above - as so:

    <h2> yada </h2>
<!-- Section 1 -->
    <p> yada yada yada</p>
<!-- Section 2 -->
    <p> yada yada yada again</p>

becomes:

  <h2>yada</h2><!-- Section 1 -->

  <p>yada yada yada</p><!-- Section 2 -->

  <p>yada yada yada again</p>

This makes me very angry & frustrated and I tend to punch my monitors when I get frustrated and angry. And I have a very nice pair of 24" Acer LCDs that I have been abusing all week.

I know where my comments go - they go right where I put them. [unless there's some XHTML standard somewhere that states comments are restricted to the end of lines...]

Please help me make it stop and help save my monitors!

I'm guessing this is caused by QDom, not Tidy. As such, it will probably go away when I switch to Xerces for the internal DOM (this should happen soon).
