RE: Title attribute on span tags

In my testing, neither JAWS, nor Window-Eyes nor Home Page Reader will read
the title attribute, unfortunately, though there may be a setting that I am
unaware of that would force the programs to read the title attribute. Still,
in the default setting, they do not read it. If anyone else has had a
different experience with screen readers and title attributes, please let us
know!
