I do this on one of my sites.
In the code for the log in page I examine $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] and if
they've come from within my site I store the page in a hidden form field - since
you're using sessions you could use a session variable for this. When the
password is returned, if it's valid and there's a page stored use
something like: header ("location: pageucamefrom.php") to send them back to the
original page (this has to be before anything else is sent to the browser)
otherwise I send them to the index page.
