Alright, So I've been playing around with the VAD for a while, But there is a few things I don't understand. My programing skills are limited to PHP/MySQL/MSSQL + VAD.
Lets say I want to build a basic weather script that reads the following:
Time, Date, Temperature, Forecast, Current Watches and Warnings + An Advert
I have already recorded all of the prompts for the conditions, numbers, alerts, advisory's, adverts etc.. and I already have a script that goes on the web server.
So my thoughts were this;
1. Ask the user for there zip code or do a area code lookup.
2. Use the web service component to read each variable (in a query string) from a web page and select and assemble the proper audio prompts.
3. Play the assembled audio.
However I've run into a snag...
1. I don't understand what type of response the web service component is looking for, Am I to feed each field in XML? How is the output read?
2. How can I dynamically build the audio based on information from that page?
Any guidance on this would be greatly appreciated.
