No crank at all/nothing/nada when key is engage to starting position

Could be the starter, starter relay,transmission position switch and ignition switch assuming the battery and connections are good.

try this,(1)remove the belt and then try to start the car.
start's (yes,check/replace alt.or pulley) ,(no,check/replace starter)
i had a guy's alt. seize in a drive though,stalled the motor and could not roll the motor over with the belt on. all the pulley's should be easy to turn by hand(except crank)
