The only way I know to do it is to modify the web page itself. E.g., using
GreaseMonkey add-on in a browser.
Sometimes you can do this, but some sites have security that block it.

Subject: [jawsscripts] How to change accessibility information that JAWS
sees
Hello all,
I would like to know if it is possible to change the accessibility
information that JAWS uses when loads a webpage.
This is what I'm trying to do:
* I want to change the label on a table, so it will show correctly when
using JAWS command to list the tables on the page.
My current understanding of how things work:
* My understanding is that when a HTML page is loaded JAWS parses it and
creates a XML file using its own tags (which usually starts with fs-).
* I can get this xml file using GetDocumentXML().
* I can use many build-in functions to access information on this xml
structure
* I can create a DOM document from the XML file using CreateObject()
* I can access information from the DOM using attributes and methods
from object in System.XML namespace, such as XMLDocument, XMLNode
My problem:
* Both the xml file I get and the DOM tree I create are relevant "to me
only", JAWS is not using those. I can change the table label on the DOM tree
but it won't have any effect, since that is not the same accessibility
information that JAWS is using.
My question:
* Is there any way to change on the fly the accessibility information
that JAWS is using?
* How do I access it?
Thank you so much,
Mara
