Hi Tom:
It sounds like you might be experiencing an issue wherein JAWS is not correctly detecting the .html language attribute and or the webpage is using it incorrectly. I did not check the source page closely. The article at the following link provides some explanation on the issue. 
http://www.personal.psu.edu/ejp10/blogs/gotunicode/2010/01/language-tagging-and-jaws-how.html <http://www.personal.psu.edu/ejp10/blogs/gotunicode/2010/01/language-tagging-and-jaws-how.html>
I will continue to search for a solution.
