Caching XHTML render_to_response

This code improves on Django's render_to_response shortcut function in the following ways: 1. If the caller does not provide a MIME type, and the caller is passing a RequestContext, it interrogates the request to determine if the HTTP client supports application/xhtml+xml encoding. If so, it sets the request type to application/xhtml+xml to override the HttpRequest class's default mime type of text/html. 2. It caches parsed templates in its own cache to improve performance. If you aren't using XHTML in your templates, you may choose to comment out the code that tests for and sets the application/xhtml+xml MIME type. I place this code in a file named "util.py" in my application. In my views, I write "from app.util import render_to_response" where I used to write "from django.shortcuts import render_to_response". Note that the caching functionality provided by this code means that you will need to recycle your Django instance when you make template changes. Instructions for doing this depend on how you have deployed your Django application.

Convert XHTML-compatible shorttag to HTML-compatible tag.

This filter converts a XHTML-compatible shorttag `<input ... />` to a HTML4-compatible tag `<input ...>`. Example: `{% for field in form %} <dt>{{ field.label_tag }}</dt> <dd> {{ field.errors }} {{ field|remove_shorttag }} </dd> {% endfor %}` This will produce html4-compatible output, opposed to newform's normal XHTML output.

XhtmlMortifierMiddleware

This middleware checks for xhtml mimetypes if the browser supports a "application/xhtml+xml" response. If not, it converts the response headers to "text/html". To enable this middleware add it the the MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES setting and make sure it appears somewhere after GZipMiddleware, so that it's processed first.

XhtmlDegraderMiddleware

The XhtmlDegraderMiddleware class is designed to make it easier to deploy XHTML contents onto the World Wide Web. The correct MIME media type for sending XHTML is `application/xhtml+xml` -- the `text/html` media type is also acceptable provided [certain guidelines](http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/REC-xhtml1-20020801/#guidelines) are followed. The vast majority of web browsers released from 2002 onwards have good XHTML support; this includes Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Apple Safari. Two notable exceptions are Internet Explorer 7.0 and Netscape Navigator 4.8; instead of displaying XHTML, they present the user with a download dialog instead. The role of the XHTML Degrader, then, is to automatically detect when browsers do not support XHTML, and to degrade the contents into something they're capable of rendering. **How it works** XhtmlDegraderMiddleware checks the content type of all HTTP responses. If the XHTML media type is set, the `Accept` request header is examined to determine whether the user agent actually supports XHTML. If so, the contents is sent unaltered. If not, a number of silent changes are made to make the response more friendly to XHTML-challenged browsers and web crawlers. Firstly, the `Content-Type` header is set to the HTML media type. Any XML processing instructions are removed, and a `DOCTYPE` is added if none is present. In the case of Internet Explorer, this should ensure the content is rendered in "standards compliance" mode. Empty elements are made to have a space before their trailing slash. N.B. If an HTTP response is already set to `text/html`, or set to any media type other than `application/xhtml+xml`, the middleware will have no effect. Note also that if you use GZipMiddleware, you should ensure that it appears in your MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES setting before XhtmlDegraderMiddleware, to allow the XHTML Degrader to act first.
