It has nothing to do with that.

Your code is syntactically valid, but it does not make sense (semantics 
error).

“ReferenceError: getChildren is not defined”

In this context this is the delimiter of a Block statement, essentially a 
no-op.  ECMAScript implementations do not support implicit block scoping; 
the scope of an identifier is defined by the execution context in which it 
was defined.  There are three types of execution contexts: global, function, 
and eval (whereas the “with” statement is a special case).

Use the script console and RTFFAQ, RTFM next time, and get a working 
keyboard.
