! Introduction
This is the Second in a series of Tutorials concerning Liberty Data Plugins. The First Tutorial - __((Tutorial - Liberty Plugins))__ tried to answer the Basic Questions - What / Where / How & Why. This Tutorial Provide a __))Step-by-Step((__ Methodology for Creating a Liberty Data Plugin. The __((Tutorial - Liberty Plugins II))__ does that and a __Lot__ more.

! Should I be Reading This?
This Tutorial is provided for Site Administrators and Developers (or anyone else) wanting to add functionality to a bitweaver Powered Site. A User on a bitweaver Powered Site would find little to interest them by reading this Tutorial.

! Liberty Data Plugins
There are many types of Plugins - but in this Tutorial - the word __Plugin__ means a __Liberty Data Plugin__.

! Your Intorduction Seems a Bit Vague!
I like Feedback! By allowing others to know what I'm doing - and comment on it - I find that many of the uncertanties I feel are addressed and answered __Before__ they can become a __Problem__. That is the reason behind the ((ProposalPage-Plugins)). It is a listing of pages for __Proposed Plugins__. In this Tutorial we are going to create one of those Plugins.
The __Proposed Plugins__ is named ))EyeCandy(( ))NeonText(( and was originally described on the page ((PluginProposal-EyeCandy NeonText)). Much of that description is repeated in this Tutorial.

! The Basic Idea
I wanted a Plugin that would add some __Flair__ to a page. I did a search and found 2 code snippets that would meet my requirements. Those were:
# It would have to have ))Cross-Browser(( Support
# Unlike most ))JavaScript(( files - Nothing would be added to the Head Section of the page.

I found 2 ))DHTML(( Scripts at <[http://www.dynamicdrive.com]> that met those requirements and were similar enough that I thought I could combine them into a single Plugin. They are:
# __Neon Lights Text__ <[http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex10/neontext.htm]>
# __Neon Lights Text ))II((__ <[http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex10/neontext2.htm]>





I hope that you've enjoyed my little Tutorial.
The Next Step is the __((Tutorial - Liberty Plugins II))__
Good Luck - [http://www.bitweaver.org/StarRider|StarRider]
