from previous help I am using something like this:

(function (global) {

  // your code here

  global.myGlobalVar = myVar

}(this));

which works great for variables, but how do I do it for functions?

For example I tried this:

(function (global) {

  function something()
{
// do something, return something
}

  global.something()= something();

}(this));

but that does not work 🙁

How do I get it to work with functions?

Thanks!

EDIT:

Please note that this is being called in a html page, first I do this:

<script language="Javascript" src="four.js">

then 

<body onload="javascript:something()">

    If you want to declare a function, you should not execute it. So remove ().

    (function (global) {

  function something()
{
// do something, return something
}

  global.something = something; // something is the variable
                                // containing the function and
                                // you store it into global


}(window));
