HTML automatically go back to previous page-CodePudding

How do I make the html go back to previous page? I do not want to do it via a button, just that when this html gets loaded, it should automatically go back to previous page.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv='refresh' content='0; URL='>
      </head>
</html>

CodePudding user response：

You have two options. JavaScript or HTML Meta Tags.

A JavaScript example would be

window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() { 
   history.go(-1); 
});

Or using HTML Meta Tags like this:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url=http://example.net">

Hope it helps! Be aware that this behaviour is, generally, not expected by the user, and could cause confusion

You may wanna use the history.back() method that looks up at your history and send you back to the last visited website.
