cancel button in sendmessage.php should bring user back to previous page

[Dirk Meyer]

After clicking the 'Compose' tab as discussed in bug 1385412 https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1385412 and then clicking 'cancel' the user is re-directed to user/myfriends.php

I believe it would be an inprovement if the user would be directed back to the inbox after clicking cancel. I think cancel buttons usually return to the previous page. Doing so would be consistent with behavior of the cancel button when the user clicks 'send message' to a particular users in htdocs/user/find.php

To achiev emy proposal, the following works for me:

line 165 /htdocs/artefact/multirecipientnotification/sendmessage.php

$goto = 'user/myfriends.php'; to $goto = 'artefact/multirecipientnotification/inbox.php';

The same thing happens with the "send" button as well, actually.

Hm, I think the reason it sends you back to "My friends" is because (before we added the "Compose" button) you initiated a message send by clicking on "Send message" on a user profile page. But, since it may contain multiple recipients, it didn't make sense to send you back to just one of their profile pages, so it sends you to the Friends list instead.

But you know... I think maybe the most logical place to send you, would be to the "Sent messages" page. So that you can get a visual confirmation that your message was sent.
