I posted more information in the steps taken section of the original post, which I'm surprised was not published. I'm running this test page: http://isr.nu/ws/WebSocketTest.htm
Note the difference if you run it in Firefox (beta 7 or above) verses Chromium (Chrome dev-channel v14 or above).
Using Chrome, you'll see that the message from the server ("bye") is displayed when you close the connection. In Firefox, you get an ERROR instead.
Since posting here, I found my way to Bugzilla and reported this.

Apparently as Bug 691038
What are you trying to say that the page is faulty ?
If I follow your link then take the close connection option from the button on the Left Hand Side of the page, then the right hand side displays NOT CONNECTED in red, which may be the expected behavior.
I am currently using Windows XP SP3 and Firefox 9.0a2

This is the same comment made on Bug 691038 yesterday, which I already answered. You need to connect before you disconnect (close).
