socket.io force disconnect client

Solution 1
'disconnect' event is Socket.io event,if you use emit to call the 'disconnect',may be cause other problom
so:
$("#disconnectButton").click(function() {
socket.emit("disconnect");
});
replace:
$("#disconnectButton").click(function() {
socket.disconnect();
});
Solution 2
For now, socket.emit('disconnect')
or socket.disconnect()
doesn't work.
The correct syntax to disconnect to the socket server is
socket.close()

I may be doing something wrong here but I can't get my head around this.
The following does not work:
client
$("#disconnectButton").click(function() { socket.emit("disconnect"); });
server
socket.on("disconnect", function() { console.log("this never gets called"); });
Can't I manually call the disconnect event from the client side? Because the following works:
client
$("#disconnectButton").click(function() { socket.emit("whatever"); });
server
socket.on("whatever", function() { socket.disconnect(); console.log("this gets called and disconnects the client"); });
