SSI (Server Side Include) *might* be able to do it, and doesn't really
quality as a scripting language in my book.
You could use JavaScript to go "back", which is client-side, not
server-side.
The HTTP_REFERER is actually an encvironment variable set by the web-server
(or not, if configured that way) I think, so you don't really need a whole
full-blown scripting language to get it, technically... Though who or what
may have provided just Environment variables, I dunno...
