title: jQuery: keyPress Backspace won't fire?
body: <p>I wonder what I'm doing wrong:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$(".s").keypress(function(e) {
     switch (e.keyCode) {
        case 8: // Backspace
        //console.log('backspace');
        case 9: // Tab
        case 13: // Enter
        case 37: // Left
        case 38: // Up
        case 39: // Right
        case 40: // Down
           break;
  
        default:
           doSearch();
     }
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want my <code>doSearch()</code> function also to be fired when I hit the <kbd>Backspace</kbd> key. At the moment absolutely nothing happens when I press <kbd>Backspace</kbd> in Chrome and Safari.</p>
  
  <p>any ideas?</p>
