Summary of Bug

In Confluence 4.0 and above, if there are two slashes, or '//', in the code macro, then any code after the '//' will be rendered as comments and might not be rendered correctly.

Steps to Reproduce

1. In a page in Confluence 4.0 and above, enter a block of code (Either through entering Wiki Markup, or through the Code Block macro)
2. In one of the lines of the code, enter '//'
3. Preview or save the page

Findings

The example code is :

This is the first example:link="http://Testing1"> another link="http://Testing2">
 
This is the second example:link="http://mine.com" another link="http://yours.com">
 
This is an example:link="http://google.com" another link= "http://yahoo.com">

In Confluence 4.0 and above, anything after '//' is rendered as code and part of the code seems to be missing. In Confluence 4.0, this is the result :

While in Confluence 3.5.11, this is the obtained result :

Additional testing has shown that the rendering issue only shows itself when the following is present :

• A 'http://' is entered after a '//'
• The line of code is ended with a '>'
