Mon Jan 11 07:28:50 PST 2016

For example, the following X3D XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!--Comment before-->
<!DOCTYPE X3D PUBLIC "ISO//Web3D//DTD X3D 3.3//EN" "http://www.web3d.org/specifications/x3d-3.3.dtd">
<X3D profile="Interchange" version="3.3" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsd:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://www.web3d.org/specifications/x3d-3.3.xsd">
    <!--Comment before head-->
    <head>
        <meta name='title' content='FileName.x3d'/>
        <meta name='identifier' content='http://someAddress/somePath/FileName.x3d'/>
        <meta name='creator' content='Author Name'/>
        <meta name='description' content='topic sentence plus good summary'/>
        <meta name='generator' content='X3D-Edit, https://savage.nps.edu/X3D-Edit'/>
    </head>
    <!--comment between head and scene-->
    <Scene>
        <Group>
            <Shape> <Sphere/>
            <Appearance><Material diffuseColor="1 1 1"/></Appearance>
            </Shape>

        </Group>
    </Scene>
    <!--comment after scene-->
</X3D>
<!--Comment after—>
