remove the single phillips screw then you need to slide the handle assembly towards the front of the vehicle about 1/2inch. after that you need to disconnect the long metal arm that attaches the handle assembly to the door latch.

Like Blur said remove the phillips screw and slide the handle assembly forward, it is very stiff and may take a firm but gentle tap on the back with the butt of a screwdriver to get it to come loose. Assuming you've removed the control cover and disconnected the controls and removed the screws and armrest assembly, carefully pry the panel off around the edges and lift it up to free the top edge rotate the panel 90* and the door handle will come out through the hole you don't need to take the handle off the metal control arm at all. Putting the thing back on is a simple reverse process.

just start prying on things and break stuff, thats how you learn don't worry so much.
"remove the single phillips screw then you need to slide the handle assembly towards the front of the vehicle about 1/2inch. after that you need to disconnect the long metal arm that attaches the handle assembly to the door latch." thats exactly how i'd discribe it too.
