inputmask doesn't show number 9

Question

I have a country select (in SlimSelect) with codes and a [type=tel] input with inputmask. I insert country codes (var takeIndex) to the mask, but inputmask doesn't show number 9 if it exists in code. I added "\" to the mask and now it is showing the first number 9, but in code like +995 it shows only +95. How can I have correct codes? Maybe I should change default value for numerics, but I haven't found how can I do this.

$('input_phone_number').inputmask({mask: '+\\'+takeIndex+'9{10,13}', greedy: false, placeholder: ''});

This should work mask: "+\9\95 999 9999"

Number 9 is used as mask for all the digits, if you want to use 9, change the mask using JavaScript, by redefining x as mask :

$.mask.definitions['9'] = '';
$.mask.definitions['x'] = '[0-9]';

Now you can use x as mask:

$('input_phone_number').inputmask({mask: '+\\'+takeIndex+'x{10,13}', greedy: false, placeholder: ''});
