I’m using Eclipse 3.0, My Eclipse 3.8.1 and SDK 1.4.2_03 on Windows XP Sp2. Recently I have performed a fresh install of Eclipse 3.0 and myeclipse 3.8.1.

I noticed that the jsp editor does not detect multi-line comment as a comment, if it indeed spans multiple lines. Additionally, key words that appear an another line than the opening comment token are pretty printed.

E.g.
```
<% 

      /* comment recognized. for not pretty printed */

      /* comment not recognized, for not pretty printed 
      */

      /*
           comment not recognized, for pretty printed 
      */
%>
```
This is pretty confusing when using these style of comments.

Obviously, this bug is still open. I moved my post here.

The JSP syntax highlighting doesn’t correctly highlight/color multiline /*…*/ JSP comments. Here’s a sample JSP file.
```
<%@ page language="java" %>
<%
      /* highlighted */

      /*
      *  not highlighted at all
      */ 

      /**  abc
      *  not highlighted at all
      */ 

      /**
      *  only 1st line highlighted
      */ 
%> 
```
