Your probably right there. You can't claim copyright over an <H1> tag,
likewise you can't copyright a print statement or a loop construct in a
programming langauge. However, programs as a whole are copyright, and
in some respects HTML markup is like a programming langauge and I see
no reason why a block of HTML taken as a whole cannot be copyright.
