Commented code is executed, causes error

[netpoetica]

Using this code, including comments on bottom, in Chrome on Mac OSX, causes this error without any stacktrace

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input

The code (must include bottom two lines which are commented out)

var SVG = require('svg.js');

var canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
canvas.width = 500;
canvas.height = 500;
document.body.appendChild(canvas);


//var draw = SVG('drawing').size(300, 300);
//var rect = draw.rect(100, 100).attr({ fill: '#f06' });

If you remove the two commented lines, no error is produced. No error is produced if you use multiline comments as well:

/*
var draw = SVG('drawing').size(300, 300);
var rect = draw.rect(100, 100).attr({ fill: '#f06' });
*/

From a quick glance over the code, I'm thinking this might be an issue I should report to javascript-editor repo at https://www.npmjs.org/package/javascript-editor - do you agree?

your guess makes sense, its a little hard to get a look at the generated code on the requirebin page to debug

SVG('drawing') will execute document.getElementById('drawing') and such an element didn't exist in the dom before, please have a look at this gist now that it's possible to edit the contents of the body
