How to create a string or char from an ASCII value in JavaScript?

Question

In JavaScript, how to get a string representation of an ASCII value, e.g. how to turn 65 into A?

Solution 1

The fromCharCode method converts ASCII to a string:

<script type="text/javascript">
document.write(String.fromCharCode(65,66,67)); // ABC
</script>

Hope this helps!

Solution 2

A reference for those of us that don't like w3schools ;)

Usage:

var myAString = String.fromCharCode(65)

Solution 3

The method you're looking for is String.fromCharCode (http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_fromCharCode.asp).
