You said tcoord contains the information you want to return...
I don't think you need to actually include the livecode function call in
your html, I'm pretty sure you can remove it entirely and do something like
this..
do "liveCode.inputLoc(tcoord)" in widget "Browser" and it will work. (It
did for me, its possible there are issues elsewhere in the javascript code)
In this way you can define a single javascripthandler and have it hand back
any data you need.
As a quick example, I set the htmltext of a widget to the following..
<html>
<body>
<script>
var tcoords='1,2,3'
</script>
</body></html>
The ONLY thing in there as javascript is the declaration of tcoords
Then from the message box I set a javascript handler to myJSHandler and
then..
do "liveCode.myJSHandler(tcoords,'fred')" in widget 1
For my lc handler I used paramcount and param() to find out and show the
data that was passed out.
command myjshandler
put empty
repeat with i = 1 to the paramcount
put param(i) & cr after msg
end repeat
end myjshandler
As expected the message box displayed
1,2,3

You might be able to leverage this into some debugging ability.
I did try a bunch of different ways to get things out (some that seemed
like they SHOULD work but didn't, causing an "error eveluating javascript"
error)
It even seemed sometimes that a method that worked just a minute ago would
stop. (I'm so bad at javascript though, its no surprise i'm lost)
