    backgroundColor is not a method, it's the actual property.   So, just compare that property to the desired value.

Actually, I think the difference is beyond even just whether or not it shows as RGB versus Hex...  I have a checkpoint set up that does something similar.... but the caveat that I have is that it will work with IE only.  I think the contentDocument property/object or some of the methods and properties of it are only available in IE.  That would be where I'd start, to put a breakpoint on that line and do some investigation as to why JavaScript is burping there...

You are always there when I need help!  I almost gave up hope. I will give it a try tomorrow and let you know.
