CS3 JS fonts example script

Question

I've been changing the fonts example script and would like to apply the font type as the script creates the string of font names.
I've added the line  myString.appliedFont = app.fonts.item(myFontNames[myCounter]); which should apply the font type but it does not.
for(var myCounter = 0;myCounter<myFontNames.length; myCounter++){
    myString.appliedFont = app.fonts.item(myFontNames[myCounter]);
    myString += myFontNames[myCounter] + "\r";
myStory.contents = myString;
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
John.

Ok I might be going about this the wrong way.
I ran the FontCollections.jsx which is in the SDK and I get a page with a textFrame and a list of the application fonts. The textFrame uses the default Time Roman typeface. The first font in my list is "911 Porscha    Regular"
In my first post I thought that I might be able to apply the font type to each entry but I don't think this will work as it is a string.
So is it possible to select the text in the textFrame app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "911 Porscha    Regular"; Then change the type face to match the description?
Can this be done?

I think this might do it  myTextChange[0].appliedFont = app.fonts.itemByName(myFontNames[0]);
