How to properly stop phantomjs execution

Question

I initiated and close phantomjs in Python with the following

from selenium import webdriver    
driver = webdriver.PhantomJS()
driver.get(url)
h         


        

Answer 1

I was having a similar issue on Windows machine. I had no luck with either

driver.close()

or

driver.quit()

actually closing out of the PhantomJS window, but when I used both, the PhantomJS window finally closed and exited properly.

driver.close()
driver.quit()
