I have seen some pretty advanced apps programmed in html before, but the source is pratically unreadable.

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

You code HTML, you don't program HTML. Also I can make a HTML program, but even though, it's markup language.

HTML and CSS aren't programming languages, not something you can "count as/as not", it's fact, like '1+1=2', you can't discuss it.
HTML is a markup language, not a programming language.
You are actually quite mistaken, Scout:
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is the authoring software language used for building web pages. It is a subset of Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML). In HTML, a block of text is often surrounded by tags that indicate how a browser should display it. There’s much more to HTML than that, of course...
For example, you can store and then later recall information using HTML. You can also use HTML to create a webpage calculator.

I could even make COD:Black Ops HTML+Images+CSS only, it would still be a markup language. It defines documents on a browser, so a browser is a pre-requisite. Eitherway, a markup language is not the same thing as a programming language.

I know html5 can do behaviors by itself but regular html requires some sort of scripting such as js or vb AFAIK.

Once again, not what it can do, but what it is: that's what defines something.

HTML5+JavaScript is really powerful!

Well, I was taught that HTML was a "programming" language when I learned HTML in elementary school, so I don't know.

I got taught it was more of a markup language, although it could do some minor programming-type stuff such as clicking button behavior and the like. No variable, however.

There are no variables, you can't write functions and classes. It is not a programing language

No variable, however.
That's where CSS comes in--it has variables (well, technically, they're not actually called variables, but really, that's kinda what they are).

If you look at HTML and CSS like this, it does kinda look like a programming language (note, the CSS comes from my livejournal's custom CSS, which was originally coded by milou veronica):
Code: ("CSS") [Select]
...
.ljuser img {  width: 0; height: 0; background: transparent url(http://i39.tinypic.com/53vm3c.png) no-repeat 0 0;  padding: 10px 10px 0 2px !important;  vertical-align: baseline !important;}
...
which can be read as a statement stating that .ljuser img has the value specified (the stuff in the curly-q brackets).
To utilize the above CSS, one would write the following in HTML (I'm using my livejournal name for this example):
Code: ("HTML") [Select]
<lj user="holmes221b">The first part, 'lj user', identifies the CSS class that is required for this tag to work correctly. The second part, which is in quotation marks, indicates three things--the two links that will be outputted, as well as the text that will be used.
On my livejournal the HTML example would look something like holmes221b.

So, really, it's just a matter of perspective, isn't it?

Kinda. However the difference is this. HTML defines HOW to display things.
Programming languages however, allow the programmer to define a series of steps to take based on input. You cannot compile and run an HTML file. You also cannot provide input. The HTML isn't interpreted like TI-Basic. It is a markup language. Plain and simple.

Yet again, not what it has or can do, but what it is. Brainfuck variables? XD

Ouch, I know exactly how that feels, so don't worry, no hard feelings. 'Sides, I was worried that I was starting to sound rude myself, actually.

Ouch that sucks indeed. I think the posts are fine. Let's just remember that not everyone is as tech-savy as someone else, so we must not be mad at someone for saying HTML is a programming language by mistake. Everyone gotta start somewhere after all.
