I wonder if I can modify this program to display lyrics from other songs...
* holmes221b will try this out later, when she can download the program and puzzle it out.

Other Calculators / Re: How do you feel about POTY Awards?

A problem is that while a lot of programs get featured, the fact they tend to be featured late, that sometimes the community has to fight to get them featured (like Axe Parser) and the lower amount of news has caused the amount of votes to not be very high. Also there's the fact that it makes it unfair if two ultra-notable programs gets featured the same year (example: Doors CS 7 and Axe or Desolate and Acelgoyobis) because only one win. It seems that people would prefer if all features were considered equal instead of trying to tell which one is better than the other.
This++


Although, if POTY was set up with different categories, kinda like the Oscars, that would probably help...

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.
Or if their information is out of date--I first learned about HTML back in elementary school, and that was in the late 1990s.

(Sorry if this is a little rude, but I just got a bunch of shots, a filling for a cavity, and a bunch of new bands for my braces. I also can't feel my tongue or cheek)
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.

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?

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

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.

HTML/CSS (if that's a language ;)): Intermediate-Advanced
I count HTML/CSS as a language because the action verb associated with it is "to code".
