Select Dropdown Widget with jQueryUI

This widget can be imported in your forms.py file and used like so: formfield = forms.ModelChoiceField(widget=SelectDropdownWidget, queryset=Model.objects.all()) The javascript is provided by [filament group's Scott and his jQueryUI Selectmenu](http://www.filamentgroup.com/lab/jquery_ui_selectmenu_an_aria_accessible_plugin_for_styling_a_html_select/). In addition to the javascript you will need [jQuery (the latest release is fine) and jQuery UI](http://jqueryui.com/). The convenient thing is that this widget will style to match whichever jQuery UI you've 'rolled' or selected, making it highly customizable! Hopefully this helps others who wanted a nice widget with jQuery and were sad to find there were no nice default options, enjoy! :)

In-memory XML-RPC server based on URL

This is a XML-RPC server, that uses arguments in URLs and every dispatcher instance is prepared in memory during webserver run. It's good, for example, for securing XML-RPC server with hashed strings and there are a lot of similar use cases. Usage: from xmlrpclib import ServerProxy server = ServerProxy('http://example.com/xmlr-rpc/%s/' % something, allow_none=True) server.do_something(*args)

Current Page Middleware

This module provides a middleware that implements a mechanism to highlight a link pointing to the current URL. Every link on the rendered page matching the current URL will be highlighted with a 'current_page' CSS class. The name of the CSS class can be changed by setting `CURRENT_PAGE_CLASS` in the project settings. Originally done by Martin Pieuchot and Bruno Renié, thanks @davidbgk and @samueladam for improvements & optimizations.

Django Jalali Calendar Widget

This is a simple calendar widget in Django 1.2 for Jalali Calendar usages. It actually sends a Gregorian value to server, so if you need further manipulations, you can use [GNU Jalali Calendar](http://home.gna.org/jalali-calendar/). You should also have [JalaliJSCalendar](http://farhadi.ir/works/jalalijscalendar) set up in your project. Also posted on: [Django Jalali Calendar Widget](http://texscribbles.blogspot.com/2010/06/django-jalali-calendar-widget.html)

urlize HTML

The default Django urlize filter does not work with html nicely so here I've used an HTML parser [BeautifulSoup](http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/) to quickly search through each text node and run the django urlize filter on it. Optimizations could be made to include a regex in the soup.findAll() method's text argument to only search those text nodes which matched a url pattern. You could also modify the method to convert the text to urls, such as using your own custom url filter.

Testserver: --noinput option, sending a signal

Makes manage.py testserver accept a `--noinput` argument to delete test database without asking if it already exists; makes it emit `django.core.management.commands.testserver.testserver_setup` signal after fixtures are loaded and before server itself is started to allow custom postprocessing.

Facebook Authentication Backend

Authentication through Facebook's Graph API. See [http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/](http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/) [http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/permissions](http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/permissions) [http://developers.facebook.com/docs/api](http://developers.facebook.com/docs/api) [http://github.com/facebook/python-sdk/blob/master/examples/oauth/facebookoauth.py](http://github.com/facebook/python-sdk/blob/master/examples/oauth/facebookoauth.py) Define the facebook tokens in settings.py and replace <app_name> with the name of your app. You will probably want to modify the scope on the authorize link in the template, see the authentication permissions link. This updates the user model every time the user logs in but I think that it is okay so the data is always correct. I have tested this but not rigorously. If there is a hole and everyone gets admin rights to your site don't say I didn't warn you :). Comments are appreciated. 16 June 2010 Added missing imports. Cleaned up the template. Shouts out to @obeattie and @whalesalad
