Solved: xpath for next set of records in navigation

xml: Using Webscraper called " Data Miner"

I'm trying to get syntax correct for xpath to automatically navigate to next page.

It is asking me for "Next Page Element Xpath:"

trying to use this below but it is not working: keeps saying it cant find element

//a[@class='page_numbers']/following-sibling::a[1]

<div class="col-md-12 no-padding pagination-container">
	
		
			<div class="ref-pagination col-md-8 col-lg-9 no-padding pull-right">
				<ul class="pagination pull-right">
					<li class="first">
							
								<a href="javascript:void(0);" class="diabled-anchor"> <span>First</span>
								</a>
							
							
						</li>
					<li class="prev">
							
								<a href="javascript:void(0);" class="diabled-anchor"> <span><</span>
								</a>
							
							
						</li>

					
					
						<li class="page_numbers"><a
							href="NextRecordsReferenced.do?id=1"><strong>1</strong><span
								class="hidden">1</span></a></li>
						
					
						<li class="page_numbers"><a
							href="NextRecordsReferenced.do?id=2"><strong>2</strong><span
								class="hidden">2</span></a></li>
						
					
						<li class="page_numbers"><a
							href="NextRecordsReferenced.do?id=3"><strong>3</strong><span
								class="hidden">3</span></a></li>
						
					
						<li class="page_numbers"><a

								class="hidden">4</span></a></li>
						
					
						<li class="page_numbers"><a
