socket_close() closes the file (or socket) descriptor given by socket.
Note that socket_close() should not be used on PHP file descriptors created with fopen(), popen(), fsockopen(), or psockopen(); it is meant for sockets created with socket_create() or socket_accept().
Returns TRUE on success, or FALSE if an error occurs (i.e., socket is invalid).
