From a master page menu users can select a link to change user info. How
can I return to the page this page was called from, after proccessing a
Post?

unless the user's proxy server strips them, you can check the refer header.
a better approach is to pass the return link in the url or as a hidden
field.

Use ServerVariables to get HTTP_REFERER. That will contain the url
that the client came from.

You can simulate a browser back button from client-side javascript using
"javascript:history.go(-1)".

Use an HTML control

<INPUT style="Z-INDEX: 109; LEFT: 239px; WIDTH: 56px; POSITION: absolute;
TOP: 69px; HEIGHT: 22px" onclick="javascript:history.go(-1)" type="button"
value="< Back">

Use serverside control....in PageLoad:

imgBack.Attributes.Add("onclick", "javascript:history.go(-1)")

otherwise

you need to response.redirect("MainMenu.aspx")
