Dude, thanks for the response!

Unfortunately I apologize :-( I got inpatient and went to rentacoder.comand found someone to do the same. Seriously, my apologies.

But, it is supposed to tell you if a certain year is a leap year or not. The script I have is below.

I couldn't figure out how/where to paste it in the dang designer without errors. I also couldn't figure out how to capture it from the type="html" like I read somewhere while trying to tackle this all day today. I have an html page up where I was going to capture it from. http://www.leapyearbaby.com/calculate.htm

I finally just got fed up. I was disappointed too because I read someone could start this in 5 minutes and it was easy and etc etc. LOL. Anyway, I guess it doesn't always pay to be good at cutting and pasting. LOL

Do you have any recommendations on how to start using and creating for dummies? I found the online help to jump around a lot and it appeared one needed to know quite a bit prior to jumping in on it.

Thanks again! ~Chris

I have the design for my Google Gadget Complete... I have the java script and such, I just can't get it to work :-(

(place tears here)...

If we do some file shares through email, would someone be willing to put my pieces together?????

I'd gladly PayPal you 20 bucks for your effort. It really shouldn't take long at all... Please let me know

PS: About me: I am an expert at cutting and pasting. I havent had an ounce of training in anything computer related. This is perhaps why I haven't figured out the Desktop Developer stuff yet. I have had it downloaded for a whopping 30 minutes now. Unfortunately, I just don't have the time to mess with it right now because I have to study for a math test... It is worth 20 bucks to get it done for me though. Seriously... a very simple request and 1/2 the work is done already :- D Please... PLEASE...... P L E A S E~~~~
