Use cookies, and when the page loads check and see if the cookie is set. If it is, then use header() to redirect to the second URL.

Well I'm not going to write the whole thing for you but look at http://www.php.net/cookie for how cookies work in PHP.

to set a cookie

PHP Code:

setcookie("skippage", "1", time()+3600); 


to check for a cookie

PHP Code:

if(isset($_COOKIE["skippage"])) {
  header("Location: index.php");
}
