I'm trying to modify the Connection header with the following code with no success

jQuery.ajax
    (
        {
        url: URL,
            async: boolVariable,
            beforeSend: function(xhr)   
                        {
                            xhr.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
                        }   
        }
    )

The request headers via Firebug show:

Connection  keep-alive
X-Requested-With    XMLHttpRequest

Any odd bugs/problems with setting this particular header known? Or is there something I'm doing wrong?
