How to find out the pressed letter?

Question

JavaScript

I'm trying to catch the symbol in this way (see below) browsers work out with a bang, safari in the iPhone too, but the android says undefined, I need the symbol itself and not the symbol ID
<input id="aaa" type="text" />

$( '#aaa' ).keypress( function( event ) {
        var this_symbol = event.key;
        alert( this_symbol  );
    });

Thank you !

Look at this example, it might help. Both the button and the symbol are tracked here.
