get_the_tag_list() function - no Title attribute

Hi,
I am customising my wordpress theme to be more SE friendly.
One thing I noted in my theme is that the tags are missing the title attribute.
Example :

<a href="" rel="tag">Tag 1</a>

Code (markup):

On Analysing my theme, get_the_tag_list() function is used to populate the tags.

How can I make the tags appear as below?

<a href="" rel="tag" title="Tag 1">Tag 1</a>

Code (markup):

I checked in the Codex reference but didnt find any solution.

Let me know if you can help me in getting this to work.

Thanks,
Sandeep

 

Use get_the_tags() .

<?php
$post_tags = get_the_tags();
if ($post_tags) {
  foreach($post_tags as $tag) {
    echo '<a href=" '. get_tag_link($tag->term_id) .' " rel="tag" title=" '. $tag->name .' ">'. $tag->name .'</a>,';
  }
}
?>

PHP:
