Default Will not start

My son's 98 Taurs will not start. I have check the fuel pump and that is working. The gas line is not frozen as it has been in the garage for 3 days now.It would appear their is no spark going to the plug what should I check next? The car did sit outside for a couple of weeks as he can not drive due to sugery. He is getting close to being released what else can I check?

Need to get a spark tester to see if you actually have no spark, also check fuel pressure even if the pump runs, it could still produce low pressure. Also check to see if the check engine lamp goes out while cranking. That will tell you if it see an RPM signal to the PCM.
