29-May-2013: Updated onload handler. 10-Jun-2012: Minor performance improvements. 4-Feb-2012: Updated and new neon effects added. 29-Sep-2005: Added the option for the text to be a link.

STEP 2: Change the colours at the start of the script you just copied to reflect the background and foreground colours of your web-page. Only use the format '#ffffff' and not 'white' or 'rgb(255, 255, 255)'.
STEP 3: Place a <span> element with ' id="wipe" ' on your web-page containing the text you wish to be wiped out. For example: Don't include anything other than text between the <span> tags.
THAT'S IT When your page loads, the text you placed between between the <span> tags should be animated as if it was a neon light, just like the text at the top of this page. There are lots of other neon light/sign scripts on the internet but this is the only one with such a wide variety of different 'wipes' and the only one that lets the letters 'glow in the dark' like a real neon sign.
