Second option worked perfectly, thanks !

If you are using a server side language, why would you use javascript? &nbsp;If your are hitting your SP via a javascript ajax call, then using js to go back makes sense. &nbsp;If your user is directed to a page (even if they don't &quot;see&quot; it) by your asp code, then you would probably be better off using response.redirect.<br />
<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-40878921-1">&lt;%
set Conn = Server.createObject(&quot;ADODB.Connection&quot;)
Conn.open(my_connection_string)
set Cmd = Server.createObject(&quot;ADODB.Command&quot;)
set Cmd.activeConnection = Conn
Cmd.commandType = adCmdStoredProc
':
' stored proc code
':
set Cmd.activeConnection = nothing
set Cmd = nothing

Conn.close()
set Conn = nothing

' now redirect
response.redirect(&quot;my_new_page.asp&quot;)
%&gt;</code></pre>

I am using ASP Classic. <br />
<br />
I am currently using the script below on a page that has a stored procedure. It redirects to a specific page.<br />
<br />
&lt;script language=&quot;javascript&quot;&gt;<br />
window.location.href=&quot;Inde<wbr />x.asp&quot;;<br />
&lt;/script&gt;<br />
<br />
I need to tweak it so that it redirects to the PREVIOUS page.<br />
<br />
Right now I have two pages that go to this one and because the redirect is fixed I need to pages to go back to the correct previous page. <br />
Hope that makes sense.

redirect to prev page

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft’s first server-side engine for dynamic web pages. ASP’s support of the Component Object Model (COM) enables it to access and use compiled libraries such as DLLs. It has been superseded by ASP.NET, but will be supported by Internet Information Services (IIS) through at least 2022.

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.
