A:
String.fromCharCode() is what you want:
The fromCharCode() method converts Unicode values to characters.
Syntax
String.fromCharCode(n1, n2, ..., nX)

Notice that String.fromCharCode(65) == 'A', to get 'a' a call to .toLowerCase() is needed.

Only if you've got the "key code" from a `keypress` event. In `keyup` and `keydown` events, the `keyCode` property has nothing to do with characters.
