    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make automatically synchronize the versions of distributed documents by using a taken-out copy to format a 2nd copy when it is judged that the taken-out copy is the latest version of a 1st document. SOLUTION: A Web page including plural paths is accessed (610). When the Web page is generated by means of a target document which is loaded from a cache version (617), a priority location (625) or a fall-back location (635), a Web browser collates a copy of the target document existing in a master location with the version of the target document (660). When no coincidence is confirmed in this collation, the document that is loaded to be coincident with the target document of the master location is updated as necessary (670).
