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>

PHP isn't dynamic (and not clientside) so you can't make timers. You'll have to use a meta tag or JavaScript. See this answer: Redirect with PHP .

If they got through by entering data in a form, then pass the page1 address back to page2 in a hidden field.
page1.php -> puts out a form
<form action = page2.php method=post>
<input type=hidden name=return value=page1 />
<input type = submit />
</form>
page2.php -> handles the form, detects where to return the user
$next = 'default-welcome-page';
$permitted = array('page1','page3','page4');
if( isset($_POST['return'])
&& in_array($_POST['return'], $permitted) ){
$next = $_POST['return'];
}
header(Location: $next.'php');
exit;
Otherwise you could construct a html link, and do the same as above but using the $_GET array instead of $_POST
<a href=page.php?return=page1>Go on, go on...</a>

Old thread, but perhaps useful nonetheless:
header ("Refresh:5; URL=proceed.php");
Just make sure to play by the rules, header must come first before anything.
