Subject : JavaScript question

I have been using a small JavaScript to display the current year. It is working well with IE, but I recently discovered that it is not displaying right in Mozilla Firefox.

Code:

<SCRIPT language="JavaScript">
<!-- 
var today_date= new Date()
var myyear=today_date.getYear()
document.write(myyear)
--> 
</script>

Does anyone know what I should so to fix it, or a better way of accomplishing what this script is supposed to do?<

That works fine for me in FF 2.0.0.14 but you may want getFullYear() which will return 2008 not 108 and comment out the --> by using //-->. If you're using a xhtml doctype get rid of the comment altogether because anything in a comment can be ignored by a parser.<
