This will never work, as you found. The Javascript action is client-side and PHP is server-side. Try using register_shutdown_function() to register a function which will call pg_cancel_query(). As long as PHP isn't ignoring user aborts (see ignore_user_abort()), your query will be cancelled when the user hits STOP. Another way is to ignore user aborts, and while waiting for the asynchronous query to finish, keep calling connection_aborted() to see if you are still connected to the user; if not you cancel the query and exit.
