Practice safe coding; always wrap your HTML structures wear a condom.

If a new survey is to be believed, that confusing line could be a public service announcement -- and for the 11 percent of Americans who reportedly believe HTML is a sexually transmitted disease, it would make perfect sense.

The survey sponsored by Vouchercloud, a coupon website, claims to have uncovered the amusing statistic, along with a handful of others, while researching U.S. consumers' knowledge of technology.

In addition to the false belief that HTML, the Internet's basic coding language, is actually an STD, the survey contains plenty of other amusing fodder, including:

  • 42 percent thought a motherboard was the deck of a cruise ship.

  • 27 percent of respondents incorrectly identified a "gigabyte" as "an insect commonly found in South America."

  • 18 percent mistakenly believed Blu-ray was some sort of marine animal.

  • 13 percent thought an MP3 was one of the robots in "Star Wars."

  • 12 percent thought USB was the acronym for a country in Europe.
