'98 Saturn won't start

A few days ago while I was driving along suddenly the car shut down -- didn't stall out -- it was electrical -- but while still moving I turned the key and it started right up again. This morning I came out of a store and got in and went to start the car but nothing -- not a sound. I thought it might be the battery but everthing seemed to be working (radio, interior lights, headlights). After repeated tries it finally started as if nothing was wrong. It happened again earlier this evening but this time just would not start at all. Again -- the batter seems to be okay because electrical gadgets are working. Any suggestions? -- swoop1088

what model/transmission?

you may have a intermittent loose connection some where. try starting the engine and randomly wiggleing wires in the engine compartment and underdash, if the engine dies the problem is somewhere in that area. also do you have a test light or any other diagonisitic equipment?
