Guys thanks for helping me solve the problem i had but now i have another problem and i am lost. i have included the code below for you to have overview.

On the home page the url shows how it should be: http://localhost/board/italian.php?country=Italian
BUT 
When you mouse over the NEXT link to go to next page you get this : http://localhost/board/?page=1&country=Italian  and then an error 404 when you click on the link
page = 1  no matter if you are mousing over link for page 5 or 2

This is the code:

<table style="width:100%; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto">

            $page_position = (($page_number - 1) * $items_per_page); //get starting position to fetch record
