Accessiblity & tables

[fintan]

Hi I was wondering does anyone have any experience with accessiblity & tables. I'm doing some work with a screen reader "Jaws". When it comes to a table it reads how many columes & rows the table has.

Now here is what I want to do. I want to stop the reader from reading that it is a table but have it read the content instead. Could a script accomplish this or can anyone think of another way to achieve this.
Thanks.

As far as I know the answer is only to use tables for tabular data - and then Jaws is doing the right thing.

If it's not tabluar data, then use divs and CSS to get Jaws to read the content only.
