if I understand the situation correctly, you probably want <input type="hidden" name="offset" value="$new_offset"> to pass the variable, and an <input type="submit" value="Get the Next 10"> to submit the form.
Since you're doing GET requests, you could just use a link instead of a button. <a href="?offset=$new_offset">Get the Next 10</a> You could even style the link to look like a button.
