Default Tranny Fluid Line Broke, Help!!!!!!

Yesterday my tranny cooling line coming from the radiator came off, I dumped all my tranny fluid. I drove about a mile to find a place to pull over. Now my XJ wont budge. I replaced the line and got 4qts of tranny fluid. I plan to fill it when I get home. Do you think I fried the tranny driving it while the fluid was coming out? You can put it in D and it will not move.

Gonna fill it when I get home from school. The dipstick is not showing anything. I can get more fluid. I am hoping I did not toast my tranny.

Thanks

if it was still moving when you stopped you should be good if it stopped moving and you coasted to the side of the road cross your fingers
