I am trying to create a button that knows what page you came from and enters that value into the anchor tag. Does anyone know a solution using either jQuery or PHP or both?

    In PHP, you could keep track of the last page the user was on by using

    $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

    and storing it in the session.

    $_SESSION['last_page'] = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
    

    and run it after your html for the current page is rendered, then in a link you could have something like this

    <a href="<?php echo $_SESSION['last_page']; ?>">Back</a>
