Show meta description in browse.html

[binto]

This may sound a bit strange but something I want to do and will appreciate any leads in the right direction.

I want to display the meta description of a category in browse.html. I put <%meta_description%> where I want it displayed (under the category_path_with_link) but it doesn't show.
When I check the page source it has <%meta_description%> but the description does not show in the page.

Why do I want to do this:

I have content (ad materials) above this space and I have just noticed that google indexes the page. Picks up the category_path_with_link as well as my ad material which is not the actual description of that category.

I will like a situation in my browse.html like this

header
cat_path_with_link Top > Shopping > Malls
description Best malls in the universe (I want this to come from the meta_description I add when creating the category)

Has anyone an idea?
Thank you

NB. Using category description will not produce the effect I am looking for.
I can also make do with a custom field but to avoid going through all the categories one by one I will like to pull this data from the meta description.

Anyone out there?

browse.php:

// vars template
global $category,$link,$pagination,$category_path,$conten t,$content2,$editor, $category_path_search_opt, $meta_keywords, $page_title, $meta_description;

<- add what you want

If I remeber right it is all..
