here you go:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
	"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<!-- include flashembed. this file is not included in the "official" jQuery tools package -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.flowplayer.org/js/tools/tools.flashembed-1.0.4.min.js"></script>


<style>
#flash {
	width:785px;
	height:300px;
	background-color:#333;
	border:1px outset #000;
	text-align:center;
	cursor:pointer;
	
}

#flash h2 {
	font-size:40px;
	color:#fff;
	margin-top:80px;
}

</style>



<script>
// script inside the domReady method is executed after page is scriptable
flashembed.domReady(function() {

	// get flash container and assign click handler for it
	document.getElementById("flash").onclick = function() {

		// when being clicked -> load flash inside "this".
		flashembed(this, "wall.swf");
	}
});
</script>

<!-- our flash container with some initial HTML inside it -->
<div id="flash">
	<h2>Click here to play movie</h2>
</div>

hope this help you, good luck.
