  To clarify the situation:
  
  I am using FCKEditor on the page and I need to get-and-set its value.
  My custom functions are:

  <browser>
  function fckEditorGetValue($id)
  {
      return FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance($id).GetHTML();
  }
  
  function fckEditorSetValue($id, $value)
  {
      FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance($id).SetHTML($value);
  }
  </browser>
  

  
  As long as they are <browser>-ones, I cannot use them just like that:

  fckEditorSetValue('description', 'description test');
  fckEditorGetValue('description');
  

  but I can with something like that:

  _setGlobal('qweqweqweqw', fckEditorSetValue('description', 'description test') );
  

  where 'qweqweqweqw' is just the name of some useless global key.
  
  
  If I remove <browser>, I am not able to user return in get function.
  
  What shall I do?

  For browser functions, you need to fetch the value from the browser using _set.
  
  Do
  
  var $html = null;
  _set($html, fckEditorSetValue('description', 'description test'));

  Thanks a lot, that was not obvious.
  So, I cannot use return in non-browser functions?

  Hi Mike,
  
  My mistake. My answer must have made it more unclear!
  You can return values and my example should have looked like this:
  
  To explicitly retrieve value from a browser function
  
  var $html = null;
  _set($html, fckEditorGetValue('description'));
  _alert($html)
  
  
  To explicitly call a browser function:
  
  _call(fckEditorSetValue('description', 'description test'));
