Unhappy !!! HELP!!! 960KG, GATOS.anyone with knowledge.. no clutch

hi,i own a volvo v40 1.9 td estate 2003....not so long ago i changed my brake fluid as it looked gungy(followed advice on this forum)....so i did that and everything seemed fine.ran the car here there everywhere.then suddenly went to move the car off the drive,put it into gear and the car jumped forward,and then nothing from the clutch pedal.(no pressure)so got out of the car and noticed underneath the middle of the engine what smells like brake fuid coming out of what seems like the gearbox:... ive lost about 6 cap fulls of fluid....any clues if i can fix this myself without using a garagethe car gave no indication that the clutch was going(if that)i am hoping its something to do with me replacing the brake fluid....am i right in thinking the brake and clutch fluid are one...was i supposed to bleed the clutch aswell....if so where do i bleed it...have i blown a seal......neanderthal
