HTML JS syntax highlighting with backtick comment incorrect (Bug)

    • Closed Issue created by Ralph Bisschops @ralpha9

    Documents in Gitlab the have the following structure are highlighted the wrong way.

    I think it just confuses the syntax highlighter. HTML -> JS -> Comment -> backtick (grave accent) -> HTML tag -> quotes.

    Example:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <script>
    var js_here = true;
    // Comment in JS
    // Backtick comment: `all fine`
    // Backtick comment with html: `<p></p>` Something already seems off
    // Backtick comment with html and quotes `<p class="test">` Now everything is wrong.
    // all text below is also in the quote or tag
    // Even JS code
    var js_here = false;

    function test() {
      var x = 5;
      var y = x;
    }
  </script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
