Break statement syntax
<![CDATA[
The keyword break exits out of loop structures and switch statement.
When a label is used, JavaScript completely breaks out of the area designated by label.
To label a statement, place the label name followed by a colon (:).
Labels are useful when working with nested loops.

document.write(" Counter2=",counter2,"<BR>");
if (counter2 == 3)
break;
if (counter1 == 3)
break forLoop1;
