In PHP, you can use the $_SERVER[‘HTTP_REFERER’] to know where the user came from.
There is no mechanism to know where the user is going, unless they clicked a link on your site to leave your page. (If that is the kind of exit that you want to track, you’ll need to rely on javascript and implement something like Google Analytics outbound link tracking: http://www.google.com/support/analytics/bin/answer.py?answer=55527)
