Generally, a programming language allows you to describe some sort of process of doing something, whereas HTML is a way of adding context and structure to text. If you're looking to add more alphabet soup to your CV, don't classify them at all. Just put them in a big pile called "Technologies" or whatever you like. Remember ...

Nov 20, 2013 · The OP's question dealt with what to call HTML authors but this question comes up because 'real programmers' are so firm in making a distinction between their work.

It's not. HTML is not a programming language, there's a reason why it's called hyper text markup language. It's interpreted by the browser (and that's why the same page sometimes behaves differently).

After that it is a good idea to learn javascript (which is the programming language for the browsers) and a serverside language like PHP (or java/ruby/perl/python). This is needed for making good dynamic websites and a good starting point for learning other programming-languages like c++.
