Webpart Title URL (Change and PopUp When Clicked)

Question

I'm trying to take the hyperlink title of an ExcelWebpart (TitleURL), change it, and upon clicking, making the link open in a dialog OR at least another window without changing the window already open. I found an article that uses jquery,
www+.moresharepoint.net/2014/12/web-part-url-title.html
However, I can't get this to work. One thing is, my webpart resides on a Custom webpart page. Not sure if this makes a difference. I tried putting a Content Editor on the page, placing the code there, but nothing. I tried placing the code directly in the
WebPart page (at the bottom):
</tr>
</table>
(I placed the JS code here)
</asp:Content>
Actual Webpart where I changed the title URL:
<WpNs0:ExcelWebRenderer runat="server" AllowRemove="True" ... TitleURL="pasted my page URL here" ... </WpNs0:ExcelWebRenderer>
BUT, nothing happens.
I tried placing a Content Editor on the page and calling the JS but nothing happens.

Hi,
My code above acts as appending an attribute “targe: _blank” to the <a> tag of the web part title, it will change the open behavior of an <a> link to open
in a new tab.
A possible reason that my code not working in your page is that the HTML structure of your page is different from what it is in my page. This is the web part in my
page and the corresponding HTML source code:
You can check the DOM structure of your web part title using IE Developer Tool to see if the HTML source is similar to mine.

If the structure is different, it will require to modify the jQuery selector in my code to make it applied to your page.
