It depends on what you are doing. If you are building a site where the
material is coming from a database and gets processed through a series
of transformations, poured through a set of templates, you need to
understand what the underlying language is doing.
Until recently, I'd really been stumped on when to use a <div> tag and
when to use a <span>.
CoffeeCup, or FrontPage, or QuantaPlus isn't going to explain it to me.
Once you have a good grasp of the theory, using the tools to generate
the grunt code to get it done (provided they don't generate junk for
code) is not a bad thing.
