html != coding/programming.

html is a simple scripting markup language there is no real logic to html which is needed if you move onto a real language.

start with python

it's perfectly fine to start with html/css as long as you realize it's not programming. it'll help you learn some basic concepts (structure, comments, refactoring) without overwhelming you.

@_@!

HTML is not a scripting markup language, it's merely a markup language. You don't write code, you write markup.

My HTML teacher years ago gave me the best description of what HTML is: it's like how a newspaper editor marks up all the columns before printing the final layout to the actual newspaper. The editor uses shorthand notation to denote what goes where and in what font/typeface.

HTML == programming/coding

HTML stands for HyperText Markup notLanguage

Python is no different than HTML.
