Question about persistent connection

Hi! After I read about persistent connections, I still have a big question: Supposing I have a website powered by a database (Oracle in my case). First time a user visit my page, I open a connection to database. Then, I preserve the connection opened passing connection descriptor using sessions. When use logout, I close the connection. The qeustion is: if user suddenly close the browser, will my connection remain opened (since code that close it is not executed)? Could someone provide me (or tell me where I could find) a simple example about persistent database connections?
