The expression looks specifically for <form ... > and </form>, so I’m just guessing here, but it should work regardless of if comments are inside the form. However, if someone for whatever reason had a comment like <!– </form> –>, that would screw up the result. So it would probably be a good idea to modify the expression to avoid looking inside comments.
