Now I know.
`top' is _not_ a reserved word in the formal language sense. `_top' could
be called so for its special meaning in HTML `target' attribute values.
`top' is, however, the identifier of a property of Window objects to refer
to to the "upmost" frameset (a Window object as well), so it may be unwise
to reuse it, depending on the structure of the application and the user
agent's DOM it should run on. Internet Explorer is known to implement
names and IDs (i.e. values of HTML `name' and `id' attributes) of elements
as properties of the global and document object. However, since the
so-called DOM Level 0 (proprietary, yet wide-spread DOM implementation
since IE3/NN3) names of frames are implemented as identifiers of
frame-referencing properties of the parent Window object or its `frames'
property, so that could interfere as well.
