I agree with many here- wait a few weeks (up to 2 months) and try again. My first is a girl and she potty trained at 18 months, went dry through the night by 20 months.
Since I was preg with #2, I didnt want to have to change 2 diapers, so what we did was- 1st- I stayed home all day, everyday. NO trips to the store or anywhere for the first 4 days. I think that getting her a dolly that she could give water to, and then it 'pee'd' so she could see it happen, made a huge diference. She wanted to do the same thing as her dolly!
2nd- Darn near every other thing I said to her was "Dont pee in your panties, lets go pee in the potty, ok!?" Constantly. She probably potty trained just so I would stop saying that, LOL! I didnt do pull-ups with her, just LOTS of panties and diapers at night for the first few weeks.
3rd- I gave her whatever she wanted to drink and really pushed the fluids- no caffeine, but 7up or sprite or juice or water or milk were all fine as long as she drank them, and lots of fruit to encourage poops too.
There is a book out called Potty training in less than a day, I didnt follow it religiously, but it had some really good ideas and the ones I used and adapted seemed to work for us.
My sons' however were a different story. None potty trained till 3 years old, but they were very ready at that point and it took a few weeks to have them dry through the night and using public restrooms when we are out.
Try not to get too frustrated, its hard for a child to understand their body cues and be reliable about telling you. Give her time, this is really a very short time in your lives, next thing you know she'll be wanting the keys to the car!!!!
I wish you the very best of luck!
