How do I ensure that a user cannot enter a value smaller or bigger than a certain value ?

The problem lies in making a validation of a field having a value smaller or bigger than another field.

    $(document).ready
(
    function ()
    {
        $.validator.addMethod(
        "greaterThan",
        function (value, element, param)
        {
            // bind to the blur event of the target in order to revalidate whenever the target field is updated            
            var target = $(param)
            .unbind(".validate-greaterThan")
            .bind
            (
                "blur.validate-greaterThan", 
                function ()
                {
                    $(element).valid();
                }
            );
            return parseFloat(value) >= parseFloat(target.val());
        },
        "Pretul trebuie sa fie mai mare decat valoarea initiala"
