What is the point of i++ on line 39? I don't think the var i does anything, unless I completely missed something.

Also I would do it with returning int, but maybe I am just old fashioned :)

Then you can just tell them to input the option, then return it after checking validity if needed.

you might get a problem with your while look on line 35 as your i variable isn't declared anywhere i can find.
