The reliable way to set yourself up with a self contained referrer, is by using sessions. At the very end of each script can set a session variable something like: $_SESSION['last_page'] = 'http://yadayada'. $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; That way during the current request you will know where they were last. There are gotcha's with this, like browser caching and the like. The other alternative is passing the page they are comming from all the time, which can get real ugly.
