Hello Jambunathan and Nicolas,
If org-mode source text is:
--------------------------------------------------
A paragraph about
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Link hover text"
[[http://orgmode.org]]
exalting new emacs mode...
--------------------------------------------------
"M-x org-export h" generates:
--------------------------------------------------
<p>
A paragraph about
<a href="http://orgmode.org" title="Link hover text">http://orgmode.org</a>
exalting new emacs mode…
</p>
--------------------------------------------------
which is grand.
"M-x org-export-dispatch h" generates:
--------------------------------------------------
<p>
A paragraph about
</p>
<p>
<a href="http://orgmode.org">http://orgmode.org</a>
exalting new emacs mode…
</p>
--------------------------------------------------
which is less grand.
I see two needed fixes, reading
http://orgmode.org/org.html#Links-in-HTML-export
1. A new </p><p> should not be inserted before
lines starting #+ATTR_HTML.
2. The title attribute needs to go into the <a> link.
Thanks again!

Also, any chance of getting (parentheses) around a link
WITH a title, but without ( extra spaces )?
Org input:
--------------------------------------------------
A paragraph about a new mode (
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Link hover text"
[[./orgmode][org-mode]]
) that is really cool...
--------------------------------------------------
M-x org-export h, generates:
--------------------------------------------------
A paragraph about a new mode (
<a href="./orgmode" title="Link hover text">org-mode</a>
) that is really cool…
</p>
--------------------------------------------------
which adds the title just fine,
but it renders: ( org-mode )
^ ^
* Putting the opening parentheses at the start of
the #+ATTR_HTML line kills it.
* Putting the closing parentheses at the end of
the link line: ]]) kills the title attribute.
It would be great, though perhaps tricky, for
org-e-html to be able to generate a titled link,
inside parentheses, WITHOUT extra spaces.
But that may be a bridge too far.
Thanks for giving it a try!

It sure should: you're starting a new paragraph containing a link and
"exalting new emacs mode..." text.
ATTR_HTML is an attribute for paragraphs, not links (though it may apply
on links within the paragraph).
You may want to add your title attribute with filters.

Hello Nicolas,
Thanks for your email. You write:
"ATTR_HTML is only for paragraphs, not links."
This puzzles me, because (1) the old exporter works fine
on links that are inside paragraphs, as my example showed,
and (2) the Manual says ATTR_HTML lines are for links:
12.5.4 Links in HTML export
http://orgmode.org/org.html#Links-in-HTML-export
If you want to specify attributes for links, you can do so using a
special #+ATTR_HTML line to define attributes that will be added to
the <a> or <img> tags. Here is an example that sets title and style
attributes for a link:
#+ATTR_HTML: title="The Org mode homepage" style="color:red;"
[[http://orgmode.org]]
Thanks for looking at this again!

That's a major change from previous exporter. Now, almost every element,
including paragraphs, can have affiliated keywords at their
beginning. Hence you can write:
#+attr_latex: something
- item 1
- item 2
or
#+attr_html: something
Some paragraph.
This means that
One paragraph.
#+attr_html: something
[[link]]
Second paragraph
is equivalent to:
One paragraph.
#+attr_html: something
[[link]]
Second paragraph
Now let's have a look at your example.
#+ATTR_HTML: title="The Org mode homepage" style="color:red;"
[[http://orgmode.org]]
In this case, the affiliated keyword is attached to the paragraph
containing the link. But _the link can inherit from paragraph's
attributes_.
Since this is not the case yet in, I've added into code base. Is it
working as expected?
I hope I am clearer now.

Hello Nicolas,
Yes, thanks for explanation and code update.
It works as you describe, as you can see below.
This is a change; now all links within a paragraph
are given (inherit) the same ATTR_HTML.
Is it possible with the new exporter to add ATTR_HTML
attributes to individual link elements?
Thanks again for all your work on this!

No, it isn't possible to control individual link elements with
affiliated keywords.

Ah, that is a pity.
Seems like a step back, in allowable specificity.
As it was possible in the old.
You mentioned before using "filters." I take it these
are the ones described in org-export-filters.el (line 1775),
"The Filter System."
Has anyone written up any worked examples of these?
And, is that the best tool for adding attributes to links?
Thanks again,
-BC

org-e-ascii.el and org-e-html.el both use filters. Also, I posted a few
examples on this list while answering to requests from users.
> And, is that the best tool for adding attributes to links?
Besides your canonical example, I don't know exactly what are your
needs. Hence, it may be, but that's hard to tell.
Filters are meant to modify output from transcoders (so you're working
with HTML, or LaTeX, or... material) before it is concatenated into
global result. They allow the user to have the last word in any
situation.
You can also define your own transcoders if you prefer to work on parsed
data.
Now, if the attributes you want to add have no pattern with regards to
related link, you cannot do much programmatically and you'll have to
insert HTML code manually.
Also, besides code comments, you may have a look at:
http://orgmode.org/worg/dev/org-export-reference.html

Hello Nicolas,
Many thanks for explaining the logic and functionality
of the new exporter.
I confess I am puzzled by the choice to drop the ability
to apply attributes to links.
The use case I'm aiming for is a standard HTML feature:
3.2.3.2 The 'title' attribute
The title attribute represents advisory information for the
element, such as would be appropriate for a tooltip. On a link,
this could be the title or a description of the target resource;
on an image, it could be the image credit or a description of
the image; on a paragraph, it could be a footnote or commentary
on the text; on a citation, it could be further information
about the source; and so forth.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/global-attributes.html#the-title-attribute
In org-e-html today, it is only possible to attach a unique
attribute to a paragraph; all links within that paragraph
inherit its attributes. If a paragraph contains two links,
they are both forced to show the same tooltip.
The old exporter allowed this specificity, correctly
interleaving link and image titles in one paragraph:
Org input:
--------------------------------------------------
A paragraph with three papers, and an image:
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Paper #1"
[[./local/01.html][a first paper]]
followed by
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Paper #2"
[[./local/02.html][a second paper]]
which describe stuff. It then offers a cat
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Some cats" alt="Cat image"
[[./local/cats.png]]
and finally a third, PDF paper
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Paper #3"
[[./local/03.pdf][a third paper]]
--------------------------------------------------
Old exporter:
--------------------------------------------------
<p>
A paragraph with three papers, and an image:
<a href="./local/01.html" title="Paper #1">a first paper</a>
followed by
<a href="./local/02.html" title="Paper #2">a second paper</a>
which describe stuff. It then offers a cat
<img src="./local/cats.png" title="Some cats" alt="Cat image" />
and finally a third, PDF paper
<a href="./local/03.pdf" title="Paper #3">a third paper</a>
</p>
--------------------------------------------------
I believe that this ability, this specificity within
paragraphs, is generally quite useful, and I hope that
you will consider it for the new exporter.
If I'm missing something, if there /is/ a way to add
individual link attributes, please let me know.
It doesn't sound like filters allow that.
Thanks again, for building and explaining.

That's not a choice /per se/, merely an annoying side-effect of moving

I understand your problem, but inserting ATTR_HTML keywords in
a paragraph isn't possible anymore. I cannot allow that as it would
defeat a fundamental change in the new Org syntax.
Though, I'm open to any other suggestion. For example, link's syntax
could be extended to allow attributes, much like Babel's inline source
blocks or calls. It would probably require many changes to core,
though.
ATTR_HTML could also accept a list of properties that would be applied
in order to each link in the paragraph. But it wouldn't scale well with
a large number of links.
I'm certain there are better solutions out there.
