Just curious to see what some of you think about this question specifically, when you think a webmaster needs to learn coding by hand.

I have to say, i very rarely code by hand these days and, if i cant do it in FrontPage, it doesnt get done LOL

My hand coding skills are also somewhat limited, i can pretty much find the 'basic' code to edit out any extra crap FP puts in there but other than that, i could code the page between the head and body tags and thats about it LOL

How many of you folks code your sites all by hand and how many use software packages? Also, when should a webmaster look at learning to code by hand or, should they?

Regards,
