How could this be done, lets say i wanna check weather from http://www.hs.fi/saa/ with autoit script. So whats the fastest way to do this? Or is this even possible? And no, i dont want to use shellexecute.

See the IE management section of the User Defined Functions in the helpfile. You will also find many many examples in this forum.

Also the AutoIT 1-2-3 made by Valuater has lots and lots of info about using AutoIt in IE (After the second exam, if I remember corectly).

I dont speak Finnish, but the basic idea is to search the webpage source code for setain text & if its there then do something:

#include <Array.au3> ; needed for arraydisplay othervise not needed to include

$URL = 'http://www.hs.fi/saa/'

    $oHTTP = ObjCreate("winhttp.winhttprequest.5.1")
    $oHTTP.Open("GET",$URL)
    $oHTTP.Send()
    $HTMLSource = $oHTTP.Responsetext

    $_Arrayline = StringSplit($HTMLSource, @LF) ; this is the Array $_Arrayline
    
    _ArrayDisplay($_Arrayline, "blaaa") ; is hire to show you the contents of the array, you can comment this out
    
        for $i = 1 to $_Arrayline[0] 
            If StringInStr($_Arrayline[$i],'<strong>Helsinki</strong>') Then    ; search Array line for text start from line 1 & end with line 0                
                
                If StringInStr( $_Arrayline[$i-7],'000.gif') Then  MsgBox(0,'Array Column 2 line: ' & $i ,$_Arrayline[$i-7] & @CRLF & 'Its a sunny day1')
                
                EndIf
                
        Next
