Sorry, no tools, as I don't sign webpages myself. Just a thought:

I don't think having webpages signed is very reliable - the HTTP
protocol negotiates supported character encodings of the server and
client and might just decide to recode the document to a character set
supported on the client side.=20

I don't know if any current webserver actually does this, but it's
something to consider.

cheers
