JQuery Validation - Show/Hide a label rather than use its message

Question

Hi,

I can't figure out the errorPlacement method of the jQuery validation plugin - for use with my checkboxes anyway. I want to just make the script show/hide a label if there's an error.

Does anyone know where I put my code to be triggered when the validation finds an error? I think I can use success: to make it hide the label.

This is just for one element, so I need to be able to specify it somehow.

Thanks

You probably want to use the invalidHandler and submitHandler hooks to provide your custom behavior. This will allow you to override the default mechanisms for showing/hiding errors.
