Would you consider HTML being a programming language?
Maybe a design language...
Thoughts on CSS?

Hypertext Markup Language
Cascading Style Sheets
Neither is programming - they are for ``artisans''.

Languages that are not Turing-complete can be useful but I do not think they can be considered programming languages in any meaningful sense of the word.

Neither are programming language by definition.

If you consider applying formatting to a Word document programming, then by that definition they are.

Does it have loops? Does it have conditional branches? No? Then fuck no its not a programming language.

HTML is touring complete. There are marquee tags that you can use to simulate loops. style="display:none" can break the loop. you can control program flow by loading large images to incrementally execute stuff.

Tell me, how will you apply "display: none" dynamically to an element with HTML (in order to break your ``loop'')?
