Hi Shadi, I guess it should be possible to use an XML diff tool on the serialised form of a DOM level 3 tree using the LS interface. However this would require some way of normalising HTML to XML. I would still guess, that there may be more than one way to interpret the conversion via the LS interface, so that different implementations might differ in subtle ways, however I have got no practical experience to back up whether this is true or not?
