pg_close() closes the non-persistent connection to a PostgreSQL database associated with the given connection resource. Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Note: Using pg_close() is not usually necessary, as non-persistent open connections are automatically closed at the end of the script.
Example 1. pg_close() example
<?php $dbconn = pg_connect("host=localhost port=5432 dbname=mary") or die("Could not connect"); echo "Connected successfully"; pg_close($dbconn); ?>
If there is open large object resource on the connection, do not close the connection before closing all large object resources.
