$GLOBALS['prefs']->getValue('pref_name');
$GLOBALS['prefs']->setValue('pref_name', $prefValue);

You can't just store arbitrary values in pref storage. If you want to  
store a new user pref that does not already exist in stock Horde, you  
need to add that pref to either horde/config/prefs.local.php or  
{application}/config/prefs.local.php. See the application's prefs.php  
file for the format of the pref configuration.

Pretty sure there is some basic information about the prefs system on  
the wiki. http://wiki.horde.org
