What you're doing is appending a "1" (the string) to your URL. If you want page 1.html link to page 2.html you need to take the 1 out of the string, add one to it, then reassemble the string.

Why not do something like this:

var url = 'http://mywebsite.com/1.html';
var pageNum = parseInt( url.split("/").pop(),10 );
var nextPage = 'http://mywebsite.com/'+(pageNum+1)+'.html';

nextPage will contain the url http://mywebsite.com/2.html in this case. Should be easy to put in a function if needed.
