Just don't categorize them as such on your resume. ;-) Are you crazy? I've actually had interviewers ask me if I knew HTML and when I told them "yes", they asked why it wasn't on the resume. "It's under 'other' at the end," I'd say. "Why isn't it under programming languages?" they asked. I don't really consider HTML to be nearly as impressive as ASP, PHP, C, C++, perl or any of the other languages that fall into that category, but I'd still put it in the "computer languages" section of my resume. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
