jquery ui and Option tags

jquery ui and Option tags

I have a select box and then several options, all with titles.

I can get the tooltips to work as far as the select box itself, and then the titles when I mouseover the options are just normal small print.

select  id="requesttype" name="requesttype" title="Request Type"> (works)
<option value="default" selected>What can we help you with?</option>
<option value="Broken Functionality" title="busted" >Broken Functionality</option> (doesn't work)

I have
 <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.9.2/themes/base/jquery-ui.css" />
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.8.3.js"></script>
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.9.2/jquery-ui.js"></script>

and
 $(function() {
var tooltips = $( "[title]" ).tooltip();
});
</script>

What am I missing?
