    Personally....

    Visual Basic.Net (a small amount)
    C# (a smaller amount)
    HTML/ XML/ CSS etc (not really languages but you listed them)
    Javascript (a tiny amount)
    BBC Basic (near god status ;) )

    Thankfully I employ programmers :)

    Why wouldn't you consider HTML/XML/CSS to be languages?

    I think they are because you can't have code that performs functions without a code to place the items and images there.

    They are indeed languages.

    HTML = Hypertext Markup Language

    XML = Extensible Markup Language

    But, one could also argue that they are not Programming Languages. :)

    Personally, I think of them as they are called, "Markup Languages", which in my mind are a way to define data for presentation in some form, perhaps processed by something developed in a Programming Language.

    At the end of the day, though, it's all 1s and 0s. Everything is data, whether it's a HTML document, a perl script, or a Java application, and it all gets down to 1s and 0s somehow, either through a textual parser, a byte-code compiler (or just-in-time compiler), or a machine-language compiler.

    As far as "what languages", to me, they are all fundamentally the same with different syntax, and I use the tool that is required to get the job done. :)

    As above, they are markup languages rather than programming languages. I wouldnt call someone who uses a wysiwyg web editor like dreamweaver a programmer any more than than someone who uses a program to create an RTF file which you could technically also "program" in a textpad if you can be bothered with the painful markup for RTF

    C
    C++
    C#
    Assembler
    Java
    PHP
    Pascal
    Turing
    VB.NET
    COBOL
    Javascript (if you want to count it as programming)

    I've done quite a bit on most of these some more than others. SO my knowledge of the language specific things may not be 100% up to snuff. I may have spent 3 months working on a project then moved onto something else. Or my jobs may have involved using several of the languages. But a lot of these you know one you know them all.

    Than your usual markup languages

    Then databases if you want to count them (although they're all the same)
    SQL Server
    DB2
    MySQL
    PostgreSQL
    Oracle

    I completely agree, you pretty much don't need to list HTML, XML, CSS etc. because anyone who knows other languages needs to know those in order to implement their skills anywhere.

    Looks like we have quite an abundant group of competent coders at this forum, thats for sure. :D
