    Use get_headers() and look for the "Location" header.

    nico's solution is fine but remember - there're more ways to create a redirect page so this method is not generic.

    for example, the use of a meta-tag:
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL= http://www.newsite.com/newurl.html">

    or a use of an htaccess file rule.

    Good luck!
