You misunderstood what I meant. As far as I know there is NO way to go back to a page where a form was submitted to. By a back button, I meant something like <a href="previouspage.php">Go Back</a>. Alternatively, if you use a header( "location: newpage.php"), then the end user never sees the post submit page. For example form.php submits to action.php action.php had a header( "Location: afterform.php" ) command at the end of it (no output to the browser can be made on this page) afterform.php outputs a "Thank you" message. The end user will only see form.php and afterform.php and will be able to go back and forward between the pages without any problems. More of a work around than a solution...
