Database server auto-close

I just wondered if someone could clarify... I have a a script connecting
with mysql_connect and in an include at end of page mysql_close

If they script terminates before end of page ie. with an exit() or maybe trigger_error(), does php always disconnect the open'ed connection?

I ask because PHP manual says yes, but I've seen some comments relating to PHP 4 saying it doesn't.

Please can you tell me your experiences?
