If you want to control where a user goes more strictly you can also pop up a window that has no buttons, the user will only be able to click the links that you supply. But I agress with Philipp, javascript is the answer.

It is (thankfully) not possible to control a user's browser from the
server side. All you can do in this case is include javascript code in
the page returned in response to the request. With javascript you can
do most of what you describe above.
