    It sounds like the tool that output this XHTML needs to be fixed to
    output valid XML.  If adding a closing p tag to each td does not result
    in JAWS functioning properly, then it seems JAWS should be fixed as well.

Well, I was assuming that there would be a closing tag, of course
(although I do now see that the example you had did not have a closing
tag).  It clearly wasn't xhtml, anyways, since it used a <font> elemement.
