No need for a tutorial, triggers are pretty easy. (Unless you're not asking what I think you're asking..)
Put simply, triggers are just the method used to activate a event. You can have them set up as one of 5 different things:
=============
Action Key: The standard "hit the confirm key to activate" method. This is the most common, used to talk to people, open treasure chests, whatever.
Touched By Hero: This is activated when you run into the event. The event won't activate by running into you, however - the player must initiate the collision. Used mainly for teleport squares.
Collision with Hero: Like Touched By Hero, but the event can now activate itself if it runs into you. Only applicable if the event is moving.
Auto-Start: If the preconditions apply, this event will start automatically. Nothing else can be run while this event runs. You can't walk, other events are suspended, etc. The only way out is by deactivating the event using a switch, or by having the character Teleport out of the map during the event.
Parallel Process: This event runs in the background as well, but luckily other stuff may be done at the same time (unless you set it up somewhere in the event to stop everything, like during a Battle Animation).
========
Of course, this is assuming that you mean the same kind of Trigger that's used by RPG Maker, and not a Trigger like in StarCraft or something, which is more of an Event..
And what kind of message are you getting at GamingWorld? I don't get anything on FireFox..
