Its a matter of getting the correct reference to the image.  If the images are
in the layer with the ID = catagories then you reference them as follows:
document.layers['catagories'].document.images["button"+num].src = over[num].src
or if you prefer
document.catagories.document.images["button"+num].src = over[num].src
