1998 Toyota Camry stalling frequently..

hi guys!
i've been having frequent problems with my car. Here's the information about it:
200,000 miliage
engine light is on when key is in ignition, but goes off when car starts up
Four cylinder engine

Here's the problem:
Car stalls intermittently
when it is about to stall, when i slow down, car putters a bit, and RPM gauge shakes wildly
when coming to a complete stop, car shuts off completely, and when trying to start back up, engine chokes.

Temporary solution:
I put the car in neutral and floor the gas pedal, then the car works again.

I would start to troubleshoot this problem by first cleaning the throttle body. Many times that solves stalling issues like you are experiencing.
