In JavaScript, some identifiers are reserved keywords and cannot be used as variable names or function names.
JavaScript Standards
All modern browsers fully support ECMAScript 3 (ES3, the third version of JavaScript, since 1999).
ECMAScript 4 (ES4) failed.
ECMAScript 5 (ES5, released in 2009), is the latest official version of JavaScript.
Over time, we are starting to see that all modern browsers have full support for ES5.
