td contains  c     html  new      or  more precisely     table headers td contains  c     html  new     and maybe for reuse you could create a function to call  function ReplaceCellContent find  replace            table headers td contains      find         html replace

You can use CSS selectors   Depending on how you get that td  you can either give it an id    lt td id  cell  gt c lt  td gt    and then use       cell   text  text      Or traverse to the third cell of the first row of table header  etc

Using eq   you can target the third cell in the table       table header td   eq 2  html  new content      If you wanted to target every third cell in each row  use the nth-child-selector       table header td nth-child 3    html  new content
