Fixed. As far as I can tell, the only problem was an extraneous "do". I 
tested the code after removing the odd extra "do" and it worked fine.

Tested by calling the function "test" and evaluating the following:

   var s = "";
   test(document,
       function (a) { s += "enter " + a + "\n"; },
       function (a) { s += "exit " + a + "\n"; });
   s

The output was what I expected. There were no syntax errors. Could you 
elaborate on what else you think is wrong other than the "do"?
