    I'm trying to use console.getkeys to have a user select a page in an address book they want to go to.

    I have a variable, pages, which contains a number so I'm using

    var keypress = console.getkeys(pages);

    According to the jsobjs file:

    "get one key from of a list of valid command keys, or a number between 1 and maxnum"

    Since I'm passing a number, I would expect only to be able to input a number between 1 and whatever pages is, however it lets me enter any character.

    What am I doing wrong?

    You're not passing any keys.

    Just in case, I also tried forcing pages to be typeof number.

    If you only want a number, use console.getnum() instead.
