if you start it with the foot slightly on the accelerator does engine still die?
Its most likely the ECU needs to be trained if the bat went that flat ecu would of reset.
If engine runs with accelerator slightly pressed, keep it at about 2500rpm untill engine is at operating temp then very slowly lower the rpm untill Idel speed around 700rpm, if it trys to stall quickly pump the accelerator to stop it from stalling try and get the rpm as low as you can untill engine starts shaking and hold it there, ECU should bring the rpm up slightly to stop shaking, then slightly lower rpm untill starts shaking again, keep doing this untill your foot is fully of the accelerator and ecu should reset the idel and run fine, its prob the quickest way of doing it and not as irritating of it stalling when trying to drive it somewhere.

My battery has gone flat plenty of times, at one stage I didn't have a battery in there for about a week and never had to do this.
I think maybe the battery has just packed it in and it needs a new one.
Is it still cranking over but not starting?? If it is, maybe it's something else, I dunno, maybe ignition coil?? although it is a bit odd for it to let go just because the battery went flat
, just a matter of taking the steering column cover off and looking at back of ign switch.
but have seen the IGN Start Wire removed and IMB wire soldered directly to the IGN or even the wire cut close to the switch, more on the DIY dodgy installs where people dont really know what they are doing and more follow the diagram, eg see ign switch on diagram and connect the wire accordingly 5mm away from the switch.
