    it was not the break, i tried the pushing button by by shifter console while key was turned to acc/on and the gear shifter still does not work. I checked the brake light too and they work properly.

Sounds like a problem with the shift interlock solonoid, lack of power to it, or it went bad. also check the brake switch as it sends power to the shift interlock when u depress the pedal

My 1997 Chevy Cavalier automatic transmission is stuck in neutral and the shifter just glides from park, won't engage in any gears.

If the shift handle moves extremely freely (more than normal), changes are that the shift cable has become disconnected from the shift lever. This would explain the indicator not moving out of neutral.
You will need to access the shift lever by removing the console cover. Once you access the shifter check the cable connection to the level. If the cable is broken, it will need replacement. If the cable clip has broken or fallen off, it will need to be reattached.

Gear shifter won't shift into reverse or park

When you "muscled it into neural" you broke the shifter. Most likely it will take a replacement shifter to repair.

2004 dodge intrepid wont move out of park

Usually a problem with the brake switch or the solenoid that locks the shifter in park.
You may be able to unlock the key switch without turning the switch on, then take the shifter out of park.

Drove fine all day yesterday without any problems. Never showed any symptoms of going out. This morning my wife went out to start it and proceeded to put it in reverse but tranny would not engage....

Usually this means the transmission is out of fluid. Check the fluid level, if its low add some fluid and see what that does. That's a good place to start.
