I have a function on my site, where it is impossible to construct the full information for the previous page and yet I have to return to that page.

That should present no problem with 'history.go(-1)', however it is vital that that previous page is reloaded because the information for that previous page is changed for sure.

Does anybody know how to solve this riddle?

You obviously can't use history.go(-1) because it may just go to the cached page. It is possible to extract the previous URL using history.previous but this requires the UniversalBrowserRead privilege. There is information on security and privileges here (http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/js/client/jsguide/sec.htm).

Sorry I can't be of more help.
