Teach me how to use Steam OpenID?

[ubermensch]

I'd like to learn how to use Steam's OpenID to authenticate users to a PHP driven website and I haven't got the faintest clue on how to do it.

If someone's gotten this working already, would you mind teaching me how it works and how to do it? Thanks.

Not to be a dick or anything, but this was the first result on Google.

You'll have to download an OpenID library, then use [url]http://steamcommunity.com/openid[/url] as the provider. You'll have to register your domain name in order to access the API key, and you'll need to put a "Sign in through Steam" button on your website. (This was taken from the above link)

Get some OpenID libraries.

Last time I tried to understand how to implement OpenID I ended up thinking 'fuck it' and lurking Facepunch.

Wait, now that Steam is using OpenID can we finally get SteamChat mobile for Android/iOS?
