On the other hand, you can tell the web server that the browser has been closed or the page 
has 'exited'.  Not 100% reliable, but in theory you could use the "onUnload" (think that was
 it) event for a web page  <body onunload="dosomejavascript();">  that does something sloppy 
like spawn a popup window that hits a PHP script that then checks MySQL processes or somethi
ng.

Not a great solution, but if you really need some kind of feedback to the server if someone 
leaves a page, that may be one way to do it.


Also, another thing to think about, don't confuse an active query and an active database con
nection.   What you may be seeing is just the database connection still active.  You can use
 the database query "show processlist" to see if the connection is just open or there's actu
ally a query still running.

PHP doesn't know the browser has gone away until it tries to write 
something to it.  So if you are inside a long-running SQL-query and the 
browser drops, nothing will happen until the query call returns and you 
try to write something.
