nothing personal but it would help if you write a little bit more clearly so that we can understand exactly what is happening.
It sounds like the slave (located in front of the engine bay by the front motor mount) is gone, replace and bleed. and you should be able to get pressure back into the clutch petal. good luck.

If you already replaced the slave cylinder and bled it check for leaks on top of teh tranny where the clutch line goes.

when i changed my slave out i had the same problem, but you have to make sure you have enough fluid and make sure you dont pump it all out. It took me two days of F(&^ing around to figure out what i was doing wrong. make sure you get all the air out....

okay thanks, i checked for leaks already and none what so ever.........but when i went to go pump the clutch to get pressure back........no fluid was going down.........so does that mean there is something stoping it up not making it go down if not just keep bleeding and just getting the air out?

If you open the bleeder screw and pump the clutch fluid will come out, but air will go back into the line unless you have someone close the bleeder screw before you finish pumping the clutch. If you are doing it by yourself you'll need to get a bleeder kit from a Napa or Autozone. That will keep air from getting into the line. Also you need to make sure that your reservoir is full of clutch fluid while you are pumping the clutch.
