		+	==First things first==
		+	* Only registered users can create pages.
		+
		+	* For testing out the code in the tutorial below, on the left hand side SEARCH BOX type in <User:YOURUSERNAME/sandbox>. For example, if my username is '''''Brahma'''''. I would type the following:
		+	<pre>
		+	User:Brahma/sandbox
		+	</pre>
		+
		+	* This sandbox is your own page. You can do any testing you want here without affecting the site.
		+
		+	* It is recommended that you open 2 windows. One with this tutorial page open and the other with your sandbox open, so that working on examples mentioned here will be easier.
		+
		+	* One last thing. You will notice a small notepad icon on the right top corner near the log-out link. Try the following to know more about its functionality.
		+	<pre>
		+	1) Click on EDIT on top of this page.
		+	2) Once the edit window appears, single-click on the notepad icon on top. This enables a functionality called WikiEd, which highlights different sections in the edit window by different colors. Plus it provides several easy wiki-markup tools in the Editing Toolbar. Its sometimes helpful, sometimes its a bit messy.
		+	3) Click on the notepad icon once again to remove the WikiEd functionality.
		+	4) Scroll down to the bottom of the EDIT page and hit CANCEL (DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING IN THIS TUTORIAL)
		+	4) When you go to your sandbox, choose which-ever interface works best for you.
		+	</pre>
		+
		+	All right...so lets get started!! Click on the NEXT link below to move to the next page.
