Yes, block comment template tag:

This does not work for javascript defined inside html templates.. This is for html structures.. I needed for multiple line comments in js scripts.

If your JavaScript comes from a django template, yes, the comment tag will work.  If, instead, you want the lines delivered to the browser, but commented out as far as JavaScript is concerned, use /* to start the comment and */ to end it -- multiple lines are allowed.

That is totally false. Anything within a Django comment tag will not be rendered in the output, whether it's HTML or JS.

But if you need comments inside JS scripts, why don't you use JS comment syntax?
