In PHP, you can use $ _SERVER ['HTTP_REFERER'] to find out where the user came from.

There is no mechanism to find out where the user is going, unless he clicked a link on your site to leave your page. (If this is the kind of output you want to track, you will need to rely on javascript and implement something like tracking outgoing Google Analytics links: http://www.google.com/support/analytics/bin/answer.py? answer = 55527 )

If the pages from the page and the target site are made by you, you can send the URL of the source page in the GET or POST method and grab it at the destination and redirect the user back to this URL.
