I'm trying to use `if` and `else` in a jQuery Function based in the `backgroundColor` of a `li` tag, for exemple: If this `backgroundColor = #ccc` do something, else, do other. I tried like this:

```
if ($(this).css('backgroundColor = #EBE5C5')) {

```

but it doesnt work right, can you help me?

Hmm,thanks a lot, but it still not working right, see the full function right here:

```
$(function(){
$('.slider-nav li')
    .mouseover(function(){
        if ($(this).css('background-color') == "#EBE5C5") { 
            $(this).stop().animate({'backgroundColor':'#c0ba9f'},250);
        }
    })
    .mouseout(function(){
        $(this).stop().animate({'backgroundColor':'#EBE5C5'},250);
    })
});

```
