the simple reply no. that's why added pushstate.

however, looks trying accomplish mutual scenario known flash messaging. done using user's session store message show on next request (and delete it).

example:

function doimportstuff() { // ... $_session['message'] = 'important stuff done'; // ... } function showboringpage() { // ... if (isset($_session['message']) { echo '<b>' . $_session['message'] . '</b>'; unset($_session['message']); } // ... }
