Display HTML comment lines (<! - ->) in HTML files

Question

I create a source code search engine and I return the results on an HTML page (more precisely, aspx, but the presentation logic is in HTML).

When someone searches for a line, I also return the entire line of code where this line can be found in the file. However, some lines of code come from HTML / aspx files, and these lines contain special HTML () comments.

When I try to print this line on an HTML page, it interprets it as a comment and does not display it on the screen .... how can I solve this solution so that it really displays?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank.
