If it is returning to the previous page that you are into you should check the server side backtracking example on my web site: http://homepage.mac.com/I_love_my/webobjects.html

Philipp,
A common problem you are facing. Check the archives for more details,
but the trick is to have a variable in the destination component (and a
public accessor method) to hold the sending component.
When your destination page is created from your originating page, call
that accessor method and store the page (which is just an object) that
is doing the calling, before returning the next page.
Returning to the original page is simply a case of returning the page
stored in that variable.
Ray.
