If you're looking to simply manage highlighting of buttons with a 
central script, the following is one way.

In your button script:

on mouseDown
   manageDownState
end mouseDown

on mouseDoubleDown # include this handler to trap fast clicks
   mouseDown
end mouseDoubleDown

on mouseUp
   manageUpState
end mouseUp

on mouseDoubleUp # include this handler to trap fast clicks
   mouseDown
end mouseDoubleUp

on mouseRelease
   mouseUp
end mouseRelease


In your stack script:

on manageDownState
   if within(the target,the mouseLoc) then \
       set the backColor of the target to 0,255,0 #<your "down" RGB color 
here
   set the uAllowButtonTracking of me to true
end manageDownState

on manageUpState
   set the backColor of the target to 128,128,128 #<your "up" RGB color 
here
   set the uAllowButtonTracking of me to false
end manageUpState

on mouseMove
   if not the uAllowButtonTracking of me then exit mouseMove
   if within(the target,the mouseLoc) then
     set the backColor of the target to 0,255,0 #<your "down" RGB color 
here
   else set the backColor of the target to 128,128,128 #<your "up" RGB 
color here
end mouseMove
