Use of title attribute in links

for

I am in the process of retro-fitting an application for a client so that
it meets P1 and P2 accessibility. One of the biggest issues I have found
is that the application uses a lot of javascript pop-ups for help text,
glossary, etc. Is it possible to use the title attribute to alert users
to the fact that the link will open in a new window? Is the title supported
by screen readers?

Thanks,
Ruth Stillman
