R help - Mar 2005 - R code for testing the equality of two independent Binomial Populations

Hey guys,
 
I have problem in dealing with R code for testing the equality of two
independent Binomial Populations.  The null hypo. is p1=p2=p (Notice: not only
p1=p2 !).  I don't know how to write the test code which includes the value
of 'p'.  Your help is appreciated!
