Save from Photoshop as GIF with transparency?

Hi:

I'm trying to open a JPG and save it as a GIF with transparency. I know the color of the transparency (R:255, G:255, B:0), and I know that the first pixel at top left is this color. Sounds simple...

I open the JPG fine, and can, for example, crop and save as JPG with no problem. However, I can't understand what is required to save as GIF with the desired color defining the transparency.

This doesn't work, I just get errors like wrong data type:

save document 1 in file thisFileFPnew as CompuServe GIF with options [line break]
{class:GIF save options, colors in palette:web, dither:diffusion, dither amount:100, [line break]
forced colors:web, interlaced:true, matte:none, palette:web, transparency:true}

Unfortunately, I can find not even one example anywhere in the scripting guide, examples, or the entire internet for that matter. Adobe Studio Exchange has a total of 5, count em, 5 scripts. I tried to set the indexed color mode in similar fashion to the above, but without examples it's difficult to know exactly what is required. I almost feel like criticizing the Adobe scripting implementation...

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Or a pointer to some examples I can study...
