<I>tag</I>---a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_g.htm#go_tag"><I>go tag</I></A>. <P>
<P><B>Description:</B><P>
<P>
<A REL=DEFINITION HREF="#go"><B>go</B></A> transfers control to the point in the body of an enclosing <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_tagbod.htm#tagbody"><B>tagbody</B></A> form labeled by a tag <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_eql.htm#eql"><B>eql</B></A> to <I>tag</I>. If there is no such <I>tag</I> in the body, the bodies of lexically containing <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_tagbod.htm#tagbody"><B>tagbody</B></A> <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>forms</I></A> (if any) are examined as well. If several tags are <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_eql.htm#eql"><B>eql</B></A> to <I>tag</I>, control is transferred to whichever matching <I>tag</I> is contained in the innermost <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_tagbod.htm#tagbody"><B>tagbody</B></A> form that contains the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="#go"><B>go</B></A>. The consequences are undefined if there is no matching <I>tag</I> lexically visible to the point of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="#go"><B>go</B></A>. <P>
The transfer of control initiated by <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="#go"><B>go</B></A> is performed as described in <A REL=CHILD HREF="05_b.htm">Section 5.2 (Transfer of Control to an Exit Point)</A>. <P>
