Get key value of a key pressed

javascript, jquery, keypress

Solution

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

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

Problem

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); ``` but it return '49' when I press on 1 instead of returning '1'. Edit: I'm aware that Ascii code of key '1'. The final goal is to allow people to only write digit into the input. So i want to detect the non digit and not display them.
