_call() doesn't return variable

Hey all,

I have a javascript function:
function getHandsetReportButtonID($IMEI)
{
    //Constants Start
    var handsetIMEIIndex = 4;
    var buttonListIndex = 5;
    var reportRegex = "doGetHandsetReportsId-[0-9]*";
    var IMEIRegex = ("<div id=\"handset-list-cell-handset-imei-[0-9]*\" class=\"handset-list-cell-handset-imei\">" + $IMEI +"</div>");
    //Constants End
    
    var handSetsTable = document.getElementById('handset-list-table-body');
    if(handSetsTable)
    {
        //loop is incremented by 2 because the there is a hidden row per visiable row
        for(var index =0; index < handSetsTable.rows.length; index = (index + 2))
        {
            var columns = handSetsTable.rows[index].cells;
            
            var IMEIOfDiv = columns[handsetIMEIIndex].innerHTML.match(IMEIRegex);
            if(IMEIOfDiv)
            {
                $reportID = columns[buttonListIndex].innerHTML.match(reportRegex);
                if($reportID)
                {
                    //document.write($reportID);
                    return $reportID;
                }
                else
                {
                    document.write("Error with regex match: " + reportRegex);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
and it gets called like so:
$reportButtonID = _call(getHandsetReportButtonID("99999990000000"));
no matter what I try the $reportButtonID is considered NULL but sahi........WHY!?!?!?!?!?!??!!? When I run it by itsself or have it document.write that return value I get the value I am looking for from the javascript funciton.

Thanks

    try using:


    var $reportButtonID;

    _set($reportButtonID, getHandsetReportButtonID($IMEI));

    Sahi is particular about using _set() for assigning values to variables used in a Sahi script.
