How can I find the text only in the custom text frame?

Question

Well guys, I have a problem.
I have such code:
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "text";
text = app.activeDocument.findText();
position = text[0].insertionPoints[0].index
in the variable "position" I get  global(not depending in which frame the text is) position(number of chars) of the found text, but I want to get the number of the frame where is text was found! Or how can I find only in the custome frame?
Please, help me

Assuming that you have some way of identifying that text frame, then it is just a matter of doing the search only against that frame. For example:
myFrame = app.documents[0].pages[3].textFrames[5];
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "text";
text = myFrame.findText();
position = text[0].insertionPoints[0].index
However, unless myFrame is the first in a story, the index will not be relative to the start of myFrame. To get that, you need:
framePos=myFrame.characters[0].index;
textOffsetInFrame =position - framePos;
