Another approach to troubleshooting such a problem is to enumerate 
the properties of an object (and their values) with something like 
this:

if (app.documents.length > 0)
{
	if (app.selection.length > 0)
	{
		//Something is selected.
		var mySelection = app.selection[0];
		var myprops = new Array();
		for (var propName in mySelection )
		{
			try
			{
				myprops.push( " " + propName + " = " 
+ mySelection[propName] ) ;
			}
			catch(ex)
			{
				myprops.push( " " + propName + " =  " + ex ) ;
			}
		}
		myprops.sort();
		alert( myprops ) ;
	}
	else
	{
		//Nothing is selected, so display an error message.
		alert("Nothing is selected. Please select an object 
and try again.")
	}
}
else
{
	//No documents are open, so display an error message.
	alert("No InDesign documents are open. Please open a document 
and try again.")
}
