			STATEMENT: label label: statements; A label can be used to identify a statement allowing you to refer to it elsewhere in a program. It can be used with the break or continue statements (examples of which can be seen in the relevent pages) to modify the execution of a loop. It can also be used with other statements as in the following example which tests for an even number, and displays it, unless it's a 12: Code: even_number: if(i%2==0) { if(i==12) break even_number; document.write(i); }
