Magento Special price validation

Question

Sorry that I'm a total newbie in magento.

I have a multi-vendor magento site where vendors can create product. But when setting product price some users often do some mistakes. Some times special prices are higher than original price. I like to check this mistake. I want a validation script so that when vendors (who have limited admin access) create a new product then they should keep a minimum difference between special price and original price where special price is always lower than original price.

Can any body give some hints?

Thanks

Hope following code will help you

 <?php
 $product= Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load(product_id);
 $price = $product->getPrice();
 $webprice = $product->getwebprice();
 $specialprice = $product->getFinalPrice();
 if($specialprice==$price)
 {?>
     <span>$<?php echo number_format($price,2);?></span>
     <?php } else if($specialprice<$price) { ?>
     <div>
        <span>Regular Price:</span>
        <span>$ <?php echo number_format($price,2); ?></span>
     </div>
     <div>
         <span>Web Special:</span>
         <span>$ <?php echo number_format($specialprice,2); ?> </span>
     </div>
  <?php } ?>
