            var oEditor = FCKeditorAPI.GetInstance("<%=FCKeditorSelfDocument.ClientID %>");
            var oDOM = oEditor.EditorDocument;
            oDOM.body.innerText = defaultFCKValue;

Answer 1

Try <strong> rather than <b>, as <b> tags have been depreciated in most doctypes. It may not directly solve your problem, but it is at least good practice.

Answer 2

The problem is that the <b> tags are being escaped/encoded and are being rendered as <b>

You might want to try using

oEditor.setHtml(defaultFCKValue)

See the js docmentation for fckeditor.
