I have the index markers inside of paragraphs that can be directly in a story, but can also be inside of tables and anchored text frames. Is there a shortcut way of getting the page object of any paragraph? Right now, I am using this

$.writeln(index.allTopics[i].pageReferences[0].sourceText.parentTextFrames[0].parent.name);

This works unless the text is nested deeper than the basic story. Thanks in advance.

Hi Dave,

Thanks. Neither functions in the thread seems to work with paragraph objects. They returned undefined when I pass a paragraph to them.

Can you show the code you used because they've always worked for me.

I must have copied it wrong yesterday, because it is working now. Thanks.
