Get the index of the current page?

$

Hello, I can't figure out, how to get the index of the active Page in a document. I can't use "activePage.name", as the name can not show the actual number of the current page. In the forums I found the following function to get javascripts indexOf() function.

 

if (!Array.prototype.indexOf) { 

    Array.prototype.indexOf = function (searchElement /*, fromIndex */ ) {   

        "use strict"; 

        if (this == null) { 

            throw new TypeError(); 

        } 

        var t = Object(this); 

        var len = t.length >>> 0; 

        if (len === 0) { 

            return -1; 

        } 

        var n = 0; 

        if (arguments.length > 0) { 

            n = Number(arguments[1]); 

            if (n != n) { // shortcut for verifying if it's NaN 

                n = 0; 

            } else if (n != 0 && n != Infinity && n != -Infinity) { 

                n = (n > 0 || -1) * Math.floor(Math.abs(n)); 

            } 

        } 

        if (n >= len) { 

            return -1; 

        } 

        var k = n >= 0 ? n : Math.max(len - Math.abs(n), 0); 

        for (; k < len; k++) { 

            if (k in t && t[k] === searchElement) { 

                return k; 

            } 

        } 

        return -1; 

    } 

 

With this I wrote then the following code:

 

var myDocument = app.activeDocument;

var myPages = myDocument.pages;

var number = myPages.indexOf(myDocument.layoutWindows[0].activePage);

 

It sadly doesn't work. When I alert "myPages" I can see, that I get the pages object. Can I know somehow get just the array with the values of this?

 

Thank you in advance!! Appreciate any help!
