method of the EventSource

(closed).
Note: If the connection is already closed, the method does nothing.

js
close()
Parameters
None.
Return value
None (undefined
).
Examples
js
const button = document.querySelector("button");

console.log("Connection closed");
evtSource.close();
};
Note: You can find a full example on GitHub — see Simple SSE demo using PHP.
