Also very old code. <script language=javascript> is long deprecated. Use <script type = "text/javascript"> instead (in fact also deprecated but still necessary for IE<9).
The  comment (hiding) tags have not been necessary since IE3 (i.e. since September 1997). If you see these in some published script it is a warning that you are looking at ancient and perhaps unreliable code.
