Problem compressing files containing .final() tag

Hi all,
I have a problem when using YUI compressor for compressing JS files.

I Have a switch statement including a .final() tag on it

Code:

switch (weekOfMonth.toString()) {
            case '1': // First week
                outputDate = begda.first();
                break;
            case '2': // Second week
                outputDate = begda.second();
                break;
            case '3': // Third week
                outputDate = begda.third();
                break;
            case '4': // Fourth week
                outputDate = begda.fourth();
                break;     
            case '5': // Last week
                outputDate = [b]begda.final();[/b]
                break;
        }

If I try to compress that code YUI is returning an error (even using the online version http://refresh-sf.com/yui/)

If I remove only the last 'l' in the word "final" then it works fine so if I have:

Code:

switch (weekOfMonth.toString()) {
            case '1': // First week
                outputDate = begda.first();
                break;
            case '2': // Second week
                outputDate = begda.second();
                break;
            case '3': // Third week
                outputDate = begda.third();
                break;
            case '4': // Fourth week
                outputDate = begda.fourth();
                break;     
            case '5': // Last week
                outputDate = [b]begda.fina();[/b]
                break;
        }

It works!!!

Do you have an idea on what's happening?

Thanks for your time.
Kr, Jose

"final" is a reserved keyword, and should not be used as a function name:

I see finally as reserved word but not final... I think is something else.

Thanks a lot for your time.

Others claim there are more reserved keywords:
