MikeSmith, TabAtkins: But I also found something like this: "Languages in which it is impossible to carry out calculations / activities (markup languages like HTML or XML, and formal grammar, for example. BNF), are not considered programming languages."

<TabAtkins>
A lot of people have overly restrictive definitions, yes.
08:15
<TabAtkins>
Grammars aren't programming anything, but most definitions of "activities" would actually include html

<Cienisty>
Do you know any scientific article containing this statement about html and programming?

<lilltiger>
Cienisty: that statement you made about markup languages is just incorrect, they are programming languages per definition.

Cienisty: wikipedia contains it, and article describing declarative programming often use markup languages as example

TabAtkins (or anyone): I see various people talking about select and/or option as replaced elements, but I can't find anything that says that they are replaced. Thoughts?
20:02
<TabAtkins>
They are definitely replaced, more so than any other form element.

OK, I am surprised I couldn't find an open bug, but I'll file one. https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#replaced-elements seems to categorize them as widgets instead
