[XML-SIG] Equivalence test for DOM Nodes?

Hi list,

Is there a utility function or something to recursivly compare two DOM
Nodes for equivalence? For instance:

<x:a xmlns:a='http://abc.org'>
  <y:b xmlns:b='http://xyz.org'>
    foo
  </y:b>
</x:a>


<s:a xmlns:s='http://abc.org'>
  <t:b xmlns:t='http://xyz.org'>
    foo
  </t:b>
</s:a>

can be considered equivalent. I need a function, which takes two DOM Nodes
and completely compares them for equivalence. If there is such a function
somewhere (maybe in one of the DOM implementations?) I don't need to write
it for myself...

Thanks in advance, Roman
