I need an OpenID login widget like the one on Stackoverflow or Id Selector (which has been discontinued in favor of RPXnow which is a commercial service).

What is the best way to make these? Is there a framework or example implementation anywhere?

+1  A: 

Google Friend Connect is actually more than what you asked for. It supports other protocols than just OpenID but it supports OpenID too. The widget is pretty easy to use.

+4  A: 

The OpenID Foundation has a list of available libraries and some links to recipies for OpenID.

Edit: user interface links:

StackOverflow uses the openid-selector library from the libraries list above.

This library has been rewritten into openid-realselector. See comments on both sites for details.

A simpler interface is the OpenID Login Box from http://openid.myofiz.com/login.example.html

I don't need a library. I am already using Janrain's Python OpenID. What I need is a html/javascript widget that knows some provider URLs and automatically fills in the URI field.

See the "User Interfaces" section at the botttom of the library page. There are html widgets there as you require.

@Stobor ah ok, that was hidden. I give you +1, and will accept if no one else has a better answer soon.
