1.In your reports page use anchors in places where you want to come back, like in the next example;
<h2><a name="1">Your 1st Report</a></h2>
...
<h2><a name="2">Your 2nd report</a></h2>
...
2.Then when you start a report your should send (or cache) as parameter also the anchor name, for example if you start the 2nd report you should send (or cahce) also the value "2".
3.Finally build your URL for back button by using also the param from point above by adding a "#2" at the end of the URL in the case of example from point 2 above.
