jQuery range slider with two handlers. Reading min and max values values

I am using the jQuery UI range slider and I have two hidden inputs to store the minimum and maximum values of the slider so as to later use them for a PHP query. But what happens is that my min and max value variables don't store the actual values but the ones before them. So there will be a +-1 variation respect to the real value. I guess I have to find a way to update the values before submitting the form. The code I am using is 

<script>
$(function() {

    $("#slider-range").slider({
        range: true,
        min: 1,
        max: 10,
        values: [ 1, 10 ],
        slide: function( event, ui ) {
            $("#minvalue").val($("#slider-range").slider("values", 0));
            $("#maxvalue").val( $("#slider-range").slider("values", 1));
            $("#amount").val(ui.values[ 0 ] + " - " + ui.values[ 1 ]);          
        }
    });
    $("#amount").val( $("#slider-range").slider("values", 0) +
        " - " + $("#slider-range").slider("values", 1));    
});
</script>

    <input type="hidden" id="minvalue" name="minvalue" />
    <input type="hidden" id="maxvalue" name="maxvalue" />

here try this:

$(function() {

$("#slider-range").slider({
    range: true,
    min: 1,
    max: 10,
    values: [0, 11],
    slide: function(event, ui) {
        $("#minvalue").val(ui.values[0]);
        $("#maxvalue").val(ui.values[1]);
        $("#amount").val(ui.values[0] + " - " + ui.values[1]);
    }
});
$("#amount").val($("#slider-range").slider("values", 0) + " - " + $("#slider-range").slider("values", 1));

});​
