Parameters
code
Optional
- A numeric value indicating the status code explaining why the connection is being closed. If this parameter is not specified, a default value of 1000 (indicating a normal "transaction complete" closure) is assumed. See the list of status codes on the
CloseEvent page for permitted values. reason
Optional
- A human-readable string explaining why the connection is closing. This string must be no longer than 123 UTF-8 characters.
Exceptions thrown
INVALID_ACCESS_ERR- An invalid
code was specified. SYNTAX_ERR- The
reason string is too long or contains unpaired surrogates.

data- A text string to send to the server.

INVALID_STATE_ERR- The connection is not currently
OPEN. SYNTAX_ERR- The data is a string that has unpaired surrogates.
Remarks
Gecko 6.0 note(Firefox 6.0 / Thunderbird 6.0 / SeaMonkey 2.3)
Gecko's implementation of the send() method differs somewhat from the specification in Gecko 6.0; Gecko returns a boolean indicating whether or not the connection is still open (and, by extension, that the data was successfully queued or transmitted); this is corrected in Gecko 8.0 (Firefox 8.0 / Thunderbird 8.0 / SeaMonkey 2.5)
. In addition, at this time, Gecko does not support ArrayBuffer or Blob
data types.
