You could use a meta tag:

<?php if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])) { ?>
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url=<?php echo $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] ?>">
<?php } ?>

Otherwise, you can use a JavaScript solution:

<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
setTimeout("window.location = '<?php echo $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] ?>'", 2000);
</script>
</head>
