Syntax highlighting of examples

[danielpeintner]

I looked into the reason why some examples are not properly rendered with Syntax highlighting, e.g.,

• https://www.w3.org/TR/wot-thing-description11/#example-5
• https://www.w3.org/TR/wot-thing-description11/#thing-serialization-sample

ReSpec uses highlight.js for syntax highlighting (see https://respec.org/docs/#pre-and-code-elements).

Unfortunately highlight.js it does not seem to support code snippets with "..."

To solve this we could simply use comments like // or /* */ to make it work.... Would that be okay for everybody?

see below Example5 and Example6 and how it may look like

I think this is definitely much nicer! Also from markdown, I generally pick js as the language and then use the // type of comments. Not sure how the behavior changes here though
