Javascript: select all text, break link to style

Question

Hi
I'd like to select all text in a Document (in different independent textboxes) and then break the link to it's style (in the program in the Flyout-menu of the paragraph styles)
Is this function scriptable (javascript)?
How do I select all the text?
InDesign CS6, OS10.7.4
Thanks

In fact, I use the adobe findchangebylist to modified, I want to do a clear setting script, not only break link to style, but when i run the script that will get error, can u help me to fix it, my script is shown as below:
main();
function main(){
var myObject;
//var myCheckSelection = false;
//Make certain that user interaction (display of dialogs, etc.) is turned on.
app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.interactWithAll;
if(app.documents.length > 0){
  if(app.selection.length > 0){
   switch(app.selection[0].constructor.name){
    case "InsertionPoint":

     //Something was selected, but it wasn't a text object, so search the document.
     //myFindChangeByList(app.documents.item(0));
                    //alert("Nothing Selected, Please Select Text Frame or Text.");
  else{
   //Nothing was selected, so simply search the document.
            //myFindChangeByList(app.documents.item(0));
            alert("Nothing Selected, Please Select Text Frame or Text.");
