I have a few textboxes in a doc and want to set the content to "xx". But below script not working.

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;

var i;

var myFrames = myDoc.allPageItems;

for (i=0; i < myFrames.length; i++)

{

if(myFrames.itemByName == "Idea")

{

myFrames[i].content = "xx";

}

Scripting

Try the following

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var i;
var myFrames = myDoc.allPageItems;
for (i=0; i < myFrames.length; i++){
	if(myFrames.name == "Idea")
	{
	   myFrames[i].content = "xx";
	}
 }
