I'm having trouble changing the color of text in code.

Hello!

I'm having trouble changing the color of text in code when I capture the mouseover event I'm trying to change the color of text using this code:  sym.$("mnuItem-MouseOver").css({"color": rgb(0,0,0)})

But without success.  I've tried variations such as enclosing rbg(0,0,0) in quotes, the whole thing in quotes, or using #000000, or rgba(0,0,0,1.00) but, again, without success.

Any help or direction would be appreciated.

Thank you

Robert
