Changing text color based on background variable?

[Stack]

Hey folks, I'm new to this FusionPro program, and I have zero experience with JavaScript, so I apologize up front if this is something that's already covered, and/or my terminology is all "n00b"-tastic..... I'm trying to create a rule so that the font color on 3 of 5 text variables will be black when a certain background image is chosen. Is this possible? Or do I have to setup separate files?

 

Just to give a little detail, the job I'm working on (and certainly tons more in the future) are printed articles; a lot of the articles are either in 4-color or black & white. The title and authors are already in black text, however the volume, issue and date are a blue color with the 4-color cover. When a customer chooses a black & white version of the article, naturally I want ALL text to be black. So that's where I am...

Stack- this is possible. How are the background images chosen? If they are decided by variables in the data, then use a rule to change the color of the text accordingly. This thread: http://forums.printable.com/showthread.php?t=27 might help a bit.

The background will be chosen via a dropdown box on the store front, which I haven't setup yet. I guess ultimately the first choice on the store front will be "Color" or "Black & White", and that dropdown will determine whether the text in question will be either blue or black.

 

It looks like that link you provided probably will help me, but not until I have a better grasp on JS coding and what not...

It should be pretty straight forward. Come back to the forums if you need help, plenty of able and willing people here to lend a hand.
