Variables
Returns an unsigned short
containing the close code send by the server. The following values are permitted status codes. The following definitions are sourced from the IANA website [Ref]. Note that the 1xxx codes are only WebSocket-internal and not for the same meaning by the transported data (like when the application-layer protocol is invalid). The only permitted codes to be specified in Firefox are 1000 and 3000 to 4999 [Source, Bug].

<td><code>1000</code></td>
<td>Normal Closure</td>
<td>Normal closure; the connection successfully completed whatever purpose for which it was created.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>1001</code></td>
<td>Going Away</td>
<td>The endpoint is going away, either because of a server failure or because the browser is navigating away from the page that opened the connection.</td>

<tr>
<td><code>1002</code></td>
<td>Protocol Error</td>
<td>The endpoint is terminating the connection due to a protocol error.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>1003</code></td>
<td>Unsupported Data</td>
<td>The connection is being terminated because the endpoint received data of a type it cannot accept (for example, a text-only endpoint received binary data).</td>

<tr>
<td><code>1004</code></td>
<td> </td>
<td>Reserved. A meaning might be defined in the future.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>1005</code></td>
<td>No Status Recvd</td>

</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>1006</code></td>
<td>Abnormal Closure</td>
<td>Reserved. Used to indicate that a connection was closed abnormally (that is, with no close frame being sent) when a status code is expected.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>1007</code></td>
<td>Invalid frame payload data</td>
<td>The endpoint is terminating the connection because a message was received that contained inconsistent data (e.g., non-UTF-8 data within a text message).</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><code>1008</code></td>
<td>Policy Violation</td>
<td>The endpoint is terminating the connection because it received a message that violates its policy. This is a generic status code, used when codes 1003 and 1009 are not suitable.</td>
