online weather API (XML) reading through VBScript?

[youandih]

Recently I was trying to create a VBS which would read a certain value and depending on the value return a certain sound to me.
The value is in this weather API XML :

http://xml.weather.com/weather/local/#Location#?cc=*&unit=#Unit#&dayf=1

There's a specific amount of values in a certain sub such as "Rain" "Light Rain" "Fog" "Sun".. etc. The sub I ment is located in the XML: //weather.dayf.day.part.t
what i tried is to make the vbscript read the value in part.t and return to me a sound located on my computer.
for example when i run the vbs, and the t value = "Light Rain" the script would return to me the sound "C:\some location\sound.wav"

Now I tried several scripts but I end up without result.. Anyone have any idea how this might be done?

Now it looks like this:

Set xmlDoc = CreateObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument")
sPackageFile = sCurPath & "

http://xml.weather.com/weather/local/NLXX0002cc=*&unit=Metric&dayf=1"

weathervar = XMLRead (sPackageFile,"weather.dayf.day.t")

If (weathervar="Rain") {
return "rain";
}
