Get Correct keyCode for keypad(numpad) keys

Question

I'm getting codes [96..105] by calling String.fromCharCode(event.keyCode) when pressing keys [0..9](digits) on the keypad. Though these codes correspond to characters: 'a b c d e f g h i' instead of [0..9].

Question:

I have 3 inputs in the form. User allowed to enter only in the 1-st input. While user press keys on keyboard some function need to filter it and write it to 2-nd input if pressed key is digit otherwise it must write it to the 3-rd input. How it can be corrected?

Answer 1

Use the keypress handler:

[somelement].onkeypress = function(e){   e = e || event;   console.log(String.fromCharCode(e.keyCode)); }

if you want to use the keyup or keydown handler, you can subtract 48 from e.keyCode to get the number (so String.fromCharCode(e.keyCode-48))
