Welcome to the forums.
How about the clock, timer and oven lights.... are they working ?
If yes you don't have a breaker problem.
You need to look around for GFI receptacles that may have tripped.

Unplug the stove and plug a lamp into where you unplugged the stove. Does the lamp light?

Does the stove have a clock or anything else electronic in it? We're trying to help you figure out if the stove itself is getting power.
If it is getting power, there's a problem with the ignition circuit in the stove. If it's not getting power, it's likely a GFI or breaker issue.
What kind of stove is it? A drop in (fits into a rectangular cutout in the countertop), or a slide-in range? (a big box with oven and stove all together).
Most if not all newer stoves plug in for the ignition circuitry. Older stoves had a pilot light instead.

Make and model number of the stove. Please post a picture of your stove. http://www.doityourself.com/forum/li...rt-images.html

Just a gas cooktop. That means four burners and no oven.... is that correct ?
Your original post said stove.
If that is correct... there is a connection under the cooktop for gas and a receptacle for the cooktop to plug into. You may have to climb into the cabinet under the cooktop to see it.

Well I would have SWORN I had checked there because even I know there's an outlet there & that should be looked at first. I honestly thought it was plugged in therefore I was baffled
I Feel like an idiot-plugged it back & problem solved
Thanks everyone for your time & help
