YUI remove javascript comments

Question

Hi, I need to remove comments (the "// This is a comment" like comments) from some Javascript code, I'm using YUI compressor, there is an option to do that?

Thanks

Thanks for the response, I'm trying to merge several scripts and after compress with YUI; I've found if I compress and then merge the scripts it works, but if I merge and then compress, something goes wrong and I got a broken script

YUI Compressor removes comments by default. You have to use a special comment format to keep comments.

/*! This comment will not be removed, so it's a good place to put a copyright */

// this comment will be removed

/* this one too */
