pg_close — Closes a PostgreSQL connection
$connection
] )
pg_close() closes the non-persistent
connection to a PostgreSQL database associated with the given
connection resource.
Note:
Using pg_close() is not usually necessary, as non-persistent open connections are automatically closed at the end of the script.
If there is open large object resource on the connection, do not close the connection before closing all large object resources.
connection
PostgreSQL database connection resource. When
connection is not present, the default connection
is used. The default connection is the last connection made by
pg_connect() or pg_pconnect().
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
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);
?>
The above example will output:
Connected successfully
pg_close(...) will not technically close a persistent connection but instead returns it back to the connection pool thus giving you the desired effect of having the connection closed within your script.

best wishes to all.
This function closes the current database connection specified by a handle returned from a pg_connect() call.
<?php
$pgsql_conn = pg_connect("dbname=mark host=localhost");
if ($pgsql_conn) {
print "Successfully connected to: " . pg_host($pgsql_conn) . "<br/>\n";
} else {
print pg_last_error($pgsql_conn);
exit;
}
// Do database stuff here.
if(!pg_close($pgsql_conn)) {
print "Failed to close connection to " . pg_host($pgsql_conn) . ": " .
pg_last_error($pgsql_conn) . "<br/>\n";
} else {
print "Successfully disconnected from database";
}
?>
Of course you normally wouldn't print a message.
