Remember, that JAWS is not the only screen reader. VoiceOVer on the Macintosh will generally read the title rather than the screen text unless you interact with the element. I believe this will be OK in this situation, though on a specific web site there were onClick spans that VoiceOver would read click here for more inofrmation, and one would not know what you were supposed to find more information about.
