Liferay uses back URL in many of its default portlets. For example, You can refer sources for message board portlet - view.jsp, edit_category.jsp

If you use to move from first JSP to second JSP, then backURL should be passed as argument in first JSP and retrieve in second JSP to use inside liferay-ui:header tag.

For example,

<portlet:renderURL var="varURL"> 
<portlet:param name="mvcPath" value="<second-JSP-URL>"></portlet:param>
<portlet:param name="backURL" value="<%= themeDisplay.getURLCurrent() %>"></portlet:param>
</portlet:renderURL>
