Jupyter Notebook script stops running when I close the browser window

Jupyter Notebook script that I created on pythonanywhere stops running when I close the browser window (when I reopen the script the asterix next tothe cell has disappeared). From what I read in this forum, it should keep running. I would like to be able to close the browser while the script runs -- is that possible? Thank you!

it should keep running. but for example, if you run some script and it executes fully, then the asterix will go away. So perhaps the cell you were on just finished running?
