RE: [PHP] easy quickie..

_Your_ browser has a back button.. great.. There are many situations in which the back button may not be visible/available/appropriate. You may also not want to go back in your _history_, just back to the previous page - and possibly set some variables in the page request. It is far more than a "duplicate" of the back button.

I've never understood why people do this? My browser has a back button. I know how to use it. It's only a centimetre of mouse travel away from the page I'm looking at, why do I need a duplicate? - seb -----Original Message----- From: Kelly Meeks [mailto:meeks@rightangleinc.com] Happy New Year, Does php set a variable that tells you the url of the page that a user has just come from? So if I wanted to create my own 'Back' button in a pop up window, for instance? Thanks in advance, Kelly --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
