I'd say the point is that both styles of comments are used presently.

I like your idea, LB. Some templates can get pretty complicated when they also include other templates within it. Your suggestion could save time when trying to trace back through the templates to find the one you need.

The advantage of using Smarty comments is that the comments get filtered out when Smarty compiles the template, so there's less HTML to download and render. Unless there are a *lot* of comments, it won't make that much difference, but anything that reduces the size of web pages is good.

A guess from me what LB wants to achieve: If you look at the source-code of the page the comments will be displayed.

Example php-script:
$xoopsTpl->('modulecomment1''<!-- generated from script script-name in line xyz to be displayed in template template-name //-->');


So you can track back where the output was initiated and where it was displayed.

This would be an item for the module-guidelines.

Right or wrong LB?

Yes, but I think that in this case an html comment is better, because you can find the template to modify viewing the source of the page from the browser.

In that case, I think it would be better to get XOOPS or Smarty to insert the comments for you, rather than manually editing every template. Maybe a Smarty filter could do it.
