Cdata in Page source

Hi,

In the page source cdata is shown:

/*<![CDATA[*/
var eblog_site = 'http://www.MYSITE.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&lang=&Itemid=101';
var spinnerPath = 'http://www.MYSITE.com/components/com_easyblog/assets/images/loader.gif';
var lang_direction = 'ltr';
var eblog_lightbox_title = true;
var eblog_enable_lightbox = true;
var eblog_lightbox_enforce_size = false;
var eblog_lightbox_width = 640;
var eblog_lightbox_height = 480;
var eblog_lightbox_strip_extension = false;
/*]]>*/

if you notice it is commented, why is this needed, and can it be removed and how?

regards
