The tutor thanks a bulletin board for a solution.

I love throwing out questions to the internet and following the leads. Often the answers turn up on bulletin boards.

Recently I had a conditional comment that, although performing properly, was showing up in the browser. Searching for a fix, I came upon advice at stackoverflow.com. To conceal the comment, a space might be needed between ie and 8:

<!–[if lte ie8]>comment<![endif]–> this might show up

<!–[if lte ie 8]>comment<![endif]–> hopefully this will be hidden
