node explorer script?

Question

I'd like to display a DOM node tree in a browser, with collapsable children. I'm looking for pretty much the same functionality as FireBug's "html" tab, only I want it within the browser window, and I want to be able to choose an arbitrary node as the root. Before I write it myself, I figured I'd check to make sure no one can point me toward an already-written one.

I'd check out FireBug Lite, a special version of FireBug implemented all in Javascript so as to be usable on inferior browsers like Internet Explorer: http://www.getfirebug.com/lite.html

It's almost exactly what you want (I think), and even if it isn't it should be close enough to give you something to start from.
