I think that is the answer.
When I have had problems going back
(typically due to just having gotten to the present page via having gone
though a "RE-DIRECT"),

then it usually was simply a case of, that I needed to go back
"More than one LEVEL" --
and in most browsers, there is a way to do that.
(I usually use Chrome, but occasionally FireFox [FF]).
