Learning how to type would be the first step.
Specify, what kind of dragon. Bearded? water? komodo!?
You will need to get some perlite or something similar, mist it a little and put the eggs in it. do not let them roll or change position. Depending on what the eggs are from the incubation temp might be different but mid 80's should be a good general temp till you specify. If you don't have an incubator you can try keeping them warm under a desk lamp (I have actually hatched bird eggs under a desk lamp) or on top of a fridge (if the ambient temp of your house is warm). Make sure you constantly check the temperature though in these places to make sure it's good.

Now the questions.....
Why is your "dragon" having eggs if you don't know what to do with them? Are you housing a male and female together? If so you shouldn't unless you are intentionally trying to breed in which case you should know what to do with the eggs....
If the dragon is a new addition and just happened to be gravid without your knowledge then getting the info as quick as possible is a good idea but rather than posting it on a forum a more immediate response would be to research it yourself.
If you have had the dragon a long time and it hasn't been kept with any others at all it's possible it's just passing an infertile egg, This isn't terribly common but can happen when a female reaches sexual maturity. When this happens the female will usually lay an egg or two that are, obviously, infertile and then never will again until she has a mate.

Are you trying to be funny or a smartass about the Komodo part?

But besides that i agree with everything else.

I was trying to illuminate why it's important to specify with the use of a sarcastic comment.
