Searching The Internet For Specific Code

Can It Be Done

[newborn]

Can I search the internet for a specific code on a website. I checked with copyscape on a few of my articles and realized that someone was stealing them word for word.

Is there a way that I can actually search the internet for specific html code. I use a lot of html content tags like <!-- my keyword phrase -- > and want to search the internet for that. Plus it will save a ton on CopyScape.

How do I do this I know there must be a way.

Tough one. Comments tags are ignored, and I can't think of any way to search for them on the engines I know. I also did some searches, and found no resources to search HTML source code.

Many coding languages are searchable via [google.com...] but not html source.
