A method and system for uniformly indexing a network document displayed within a computer display screen in a computer network having a group of clients connectable to one or more servers, wherein the network document is composed of displayable components. Initially, all displayable components within the network document are identified. Next, the displayable components are serially evaluated against a profile list of particular displayable components within the network document, in response to identifying all displayable components within the network document. Finally, synchronization points are automatically inserted at predetermined locations within the network document, in response to serially evaluating the displayable components against the profile list, wherein each synchronization point is associated with a particular displayable component contained within the profile list, thereby permitting users reviewing copies of the same network document in varying display formats to refer to identical locations within the network document relative to the synchronization points, regardless of the type of display format utilized to display the network document at each of the group of clients within the computer network. The network document may be composed of a World Wide Web document. The web document is thus parsed and all components belonging to the component list are serially marked. This is accomplished utilizing a special tag for processing and a follow-up tag for display. The result is a uniform and consistent set of synchronization points throughout the document.
