It’s a simple enough problem for most of you, here goes

I have six buttons all white. I would like it so that when the home button is used, it stays grey to indicate that this is the page a person is looking at, same goes for all buttons as well. the button should of course go back to white when another button is activated. I’ve tried putting a grey movie clip with a stop action in it on the hit state but that doesn’t work, I pressume that some actionscript will be used?

I can’t find a tutorial that addresses this issue.  
Thank you.
