I am not sure I understand. I suppose you mean buttons in FvwmButtons.
If so, you probably have an incorrect pattern in the Action quoted string.
If you have something like the following line, the button stays pressed
until you open a "Notscape" window, like with "xterm -name Notscape".

  *FvwmButtons: (Icon mini/netscape.xpm, Action Exec "Notscape" netscape)

Or maybe you run mozilla while waiting for "Netscape". Just replace the
quoted string. Or explain the problem better, with configuration included.

By default windows have no button 8 even if you specified a pixmap for it.
And you should bind something to it to actually see it. Add this:

  Style * Button 8
  Mouse 0 8 A Close
