Blocked Comments in JScript

Multiline comments in JScript begin with /* and end with */. Large, multistatement comment blocks should be formatted as in the example below.

Example:

function showIt()

  /*******************************************
  ** This is a large comment block.         
  **                                        
  ** This procedure is called when the user 
  ** selects a language.                    
  **                                        
  ** It displays an appropriate select item 
  ** based on their language choice.        
  **                                        
  ** The method choices are each contained  
  ** in a separate div.
