Get key value of a key pressed

Question

I don\'t find how to get the value of a key pressed. I currently have

$(\'#info_price\').bind(\'keydown\',function(evt){
    alert(evt.keyCode);
         


        

Answer 1

As it's told in comment it's ASCII code. To get it as character you can do:

alert(String.fromCharCode(evt.keyCode));
