I'm not sure off hand but a good way to learn I think is checking out other pages that do similar things, like greenday.com has a page flash intro, you could view the source of that. Or use Frontpage to do it and see how the code is made up in that.

you make a regular index file (index.html, index.php, index.shtml, or whatver)

and you embed the flash document inside it
