PHP comments - Dotable

waldo · 10th October 2007, 10:27 AM

PHP Code:


			
// Temporary date stuff below
// This simply allocates 'now' to the variable $then... 
// this will show all products added after 'then' which is now.
// This isn't technically now, as it was set then.. 
// hence the name for the variable......

Am revising an existing site at the minute and stumbled across the above comment in some PHP - as you can tell, commenting isn't my strong suit (along with making sense!)

Anyone beat me to the title of 'worst code commenter ever'?!

someone should get a kick in his balls for great programming style anyway...

PS. waldo :-) its not the comment problem, you probably did something not nice with the code , and now you have to put such comments in it :p
