Is it possible to send http requests with curl but not have curl wait
for the response?
The reason I ask is because I'd like to code a web app that can sorta
start time consuming processes without the user having to wait. I'm
doing this (with fsockopen) by sending an http request to a page that
does the time consuming stuff and then immediatly closing, without
having read any of the response. This way, I don't have to wait for
the response.
Is it possible to do the same thing with curl? Sending just HEAD
requests doesn't work since it'd seem that the response (which I don't
yet know how to disable, if possible) is only sent at the end of the
pages execution. This might be a mod_gzip issue, but I'd rather use
fsockopen then disable mod_gzip.
Any ideas?
