 Your saying that "HTML is a programming language" hinges on the distinction between "declarative" and "imperative" programming languages, but this conclusion is naïve, as it ignores another distinction:
 
 "programming languages" and "markup languages" are different, and each can either be declarative or imperative.
 
 An imperative programming language would be something like C. A declarative programming language would be Haskell or Eve.
 
 An imperative markup language would be postscript. A declarative markup language would be XML or..... HTML.
