[jdom-interest] how to compare 2 xml instances

[Madrona, Robert]

Hi,
 
I would like to compare if 2 xml iinstances are identical.
I noticed Element.equals() implements identity comparaison.
Is there such feature in JDOM?
My need is to compare the whole DOM trees from XML files generated by different tools
Especially I would like to ignore:
- tabs
- CR
- comments,
- some processing instructions, 
 
Thanks.
