Assuming you have an element that looks like this.

 

<span id="colorChange">Clicking this text changes the color of it.</span>
Script below.

 

window.onload = function(){
 var cc = document.getElementById("colorChange");
 if( !cc ) {
  throw new Error("Element to change color was not found.");
 }
 cc.onclick = function(){
  if( cc.style.color == "rgb(255,0,0)" ) cc.style.color = "rgb(0,0,0)";
  else cc.style.color = "rgb(255,0,0)";
 };
};
That's about all you need. You could use jQuery and make this a bit more simple and also being able to fire the script without having to wait for images to completely load.

My bad, I figured out the problem. The elem.style.color property is always noted as rgb value with spaces, I left out the spaces.

 

Below script should work just fine.

 

 

window.onload = function(){
 var cc = document.getElementById("colorChange");
 if( !cc ) {
  throw new Error("Element to change color was not found.");
 }
 cc.onclick = function(){
  if( cc.style.color == "rgb(255, 0, 0)" ) cc.style.color = "rgb(0, 0, 0)";
  else cc.style.color = "rgb(255, 0, 0)";
 };
};
