You guys gotta search man. If it turns over , its not your battery. It would only click if its the battery.
You sound like you're not getting fuel or spark.
Check to see if you're getting spark. You can buy the tester at anyplace like NAPA, or autozone. OR pull one of the plug wires and insert a screwdriver into the wire end. Lay it somewhere you can see it or have a friend watch it. Crank the car. Do you see spark? If so, then you're probably having a fuel problem. When you turn the key on you should hear a low hum or something. This is your fuelpump. Do you hear it?

I would recommend you having an assistance to listen for the hum, it can be tricky for some people.... But, if you have a bad fuel pump, you can go to just find someone who has it, or go aftermarket from auto zone or something...

there should be a relay under the hood for the fuel pump fuse. Also take off your gas cap and see if there is pressure in the tank. You should hear a hiss sound. that will let you know if there is pressure in there. good luck. My girls cavalier is doing the same thing right now and its the fuel pump.

I was just thinking, if you really want to make sure its the Fuel pump, Lol. Unscrew a spark plug and crank it. You should get a fuel mist out of the hole. But checking the fuse is alot easier.
