Answer 1

You cannot reliably detect the user closing the browser or leaving the website.

The way this is typically done is by measuring inactivity period - if the user has had no activity for, say, 15 minutes, assume that he has left.

Answer 2

The browser will fire a clientside event when it is closing, you should then be able to send a request to your server using javascript.

But as driis said, it is not 100% reliable.
