Hi Robin,

I would use some combination of the action and result elements of the PFC:

http://www.orbeon.com/orbeon/doc/reference-page-flow#action-element

Using an action element you could execute a pipeline that checks to see if the url has been accessed after the submission, something like this (not tested)

<page id="reached-after-submission" path-info="/reached/after/submission/">
        <action action="check-to-see-where-the-user-is-from.xpl">
                <result when="not-from-submission-xpath2.0" page="some-other-page"/>
        </action>
</page>

check-to-see-where-the-user-is-from.xpl might use something like the request processor

http://www.orbeon.com/orbeon/doc/processors-generators-request

to do this.

Hope this is of some use,

Tom
