title: sending a non-blocking HTTP POST request
body: <p>I have a two websites in php and python.
  When a user sends a request to the server I need php/python to send an HTTP POST request to a remote server. I want to reply to the user immediately without waiting for a response from the remote server.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to continue running a php/python script after sending a response to the user. In that case I'll first reply to the user and only then send the HTTP POST request to the remote server.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to create a non-blocking HTTP client in php/python without handling the response at all?</p>
  
  <p>A solution that will have the same logic in php and python is preferable for me.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks </p>
