/**

 * This interface inherits from <code>CharacterData</code> and represents the

 * content of a comment, i.e., all the characters between the starting

 * '{@code <!--}' and ending '{@code -->}'. Note that this is

 * the definition of a comment in XML, and, in practice, HTML, although some

 * HTML tools may implement the full SGML comment structure.

 * <p> No lexical check is done on the content of a comment and it is

 * therefore possible to have the character sequence <code>"--"</code>

 * (double-hyphen) in the content, which is illegal in a comment per section

 * 2.5 of [<a href='http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204'>XML 1.0</a>]. The

 * presence of this character sequence must generate a fatal error during

 * serialization.

 * <p>See also the <a href='http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-DOM-Level-3-Core-20040407'>Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Core Specification</a>.
