go to the previous page

is there a way to direct the users back to a previous page automatically. right now i use the header("Location: ......"); to direct them, but what I want is for them to go to the second to last page they were at before they got to this page. I tried
[code]
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    history.back();
    //-->
</SCRIPT>
[/code]
But that only took me back to the very last page I was at. I want to go back 2 pages.

Any ideas?

There is no function in PHP that will allow you to go back twice. The only way to do that would be to store a history in a cookie or in a session and then pull that out and stick it in header(Location:...)
