Netscape invented JavaScript, and Microsoft /later/ implemented a
similar language named JScript. Both have now been standardised as
ECMAScript by ECMA International, and it is this language that browser
vendors aim to implement.

In JScript, there are future reserved words, and this includes goto. The
difference is that JScript doesn't enforce this list (though it should).
However, even Microsoft states that these words should not be used as
identifiers.
