Title attribute for links

I think there is still lack of support for the title attribute in all link tags. Even though You can define title in permlinks, You can’t do it in
<txp:link_to_home>Foo</txp:link_to_home>
Further, if You open a form used for article listing and put there one of article properties like this
<li><txp:permlink title="<txp:title />"><txp:article_image /></txp:permlink></li>
This will result in a set of errors since using article tags out of article context.

Maybe, there is a plugin, which helps to operate with title attributes, but I couldn’t find such one and title is really significant for good usability. Please, implement improved title handling in a new revision. Actually I’m up for coding it myself, so one of developers needs only check it in. ;-)

<txp:permlink title='<txp:title />'> (Parsing Tag Attributes)

You can stop coding, bookmark Textbook ;)

Re: Title attribute for links

Fine, the first one is known for me and it is only a workaround, not the preferrable solution :-)
The second one is the same what I wrote and it doesn’t work.

Re: Title attribute for links

Look, I wrote:

“(…) if You open a form used for article listing and put there one of article properties like this
<li><txp:permlink title="<txp:title />"><txp:article_image /></txp:permlink></li>
This will result in a set of errors since using article tags out of article context.”

Then You wrote the same as suggestion to solve my problem

<txp:permlink title='<txp:title />'> (Parsing Tag Attributes)”
