Problems setting up WDT and timer1

I tried running the board stand alone and it still won't run right. I was able to set the wdt for sleep mode (divide by 1) then changed it to 2304MS and it was running right, I still wasn't able to set timer1 correctly but I only needed to get the timing right. Now I'm back to the drawing board.... As soon as I press the "run" button, it goes back to sleep, even though I attempt to clear the wdt numerous times in the ISR...... That, and MPLAB is just a pain in the neck, hanging up my computer, watching the hourglass for 5 minutes at a time, etc...... I don't know if this is a MPLAB thing or what..... Maybe I'll try running out of the CCS IDE.....

Post a very short program that demonstrates the problem. Here's an
example of what I mean:

It's super short, and it shows how to wake up from sleep with Timer1.

The program that you post must be compilable without errors. It must
have the #include, #fuses, #use delay(), main(), variable declarations,
etc. Don't put in any Wizard code that is unrelated to demonstrating
the problem. i.e., don't put in code to setup the A/D, when your
problem is about the WDT. Most importantly, the program must be short.
