JQuery :: (Validate) Individual Form Field Failure And Success Events?

I'm trying to figure out how to integrate jQuery Validation plugin with the qTip plugin [0] to show custom error message displays. I've
had partial success with the following code:

$("#RegistrationForm").validate(
{
errorElement: "span",[code]....

At this point, that successfully displays the validation failure message in a qTip tooltip when it occurs, but there are two problems
with it:

1) The error tooltip toggles between visible and invisible onmouseover and onmouseout. I'm sure this isn't really an issue with the Validation plugin, but rather something I need to figure out with the tooltip plugin. But, my bigger problem is...

2) Even when the invalid condition is fixed (valid data is later entered into the field), the error tooltip remains attached to the field that was previously invalid, even after the field is valid, and continues to toggle between visible and invisible onmouseover and
onmouseout. I'm fairly certain that this is because I've not yet destroyed the tooltip object, but, I can't seem to figure out a way to intercept the "valid" or "success" event with a reference to the element so that I *can* destroy the attached tooltip object.any experience with combining qTip with Validation, or, if I'm missing something in the docs (I've not been able to find anything like this yet) about how to handle/override event handlers for individual form element invalidation/success. I *did* try attaching a function to the "success" attribute of the validate function, but that seems to only give me a reference to the success label, and not the element that its attached to.
