i have a problem with this function only excepting integers, i need it to only accept strings that are valid between 2-15 characters?
any help is appreciated thanks.

function getDescription() {
var Description = [];
Description = prompt("Enter the description: ", "");
    while (!(Description >= 2 && Description <= 15))
    {
        Description = prompt("Error! The description must be between (2 - 15) characters in length.\nEnter the description: ", "");
    }
return Description;
}

getDescription()

edit: I think the other problem i am experiencing is what i am inputting is it actually getting stored as an array in Description?

    The return value of the prompt function is a string, so you need to check the length of that string, not the value of it:

    while (!(Description.length >= 2 && Description.length <= 15)){
      // ...
    }
