flash player: usage

Question

i use Adobe flash player in my site, and now i need to increment some filed in database, when user click on player. here is the script

<div id="conteiner" style="text-align: center;" ></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
            var s1 = new SWFObject("player.swf","ply","420","380","9","#FFFFFF");
            s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
            s1.addParam("allowscriptaccess","always");
            s1.addParam("flashvars","file=<?=$video ?>");
            s1.write("conteiner");
        </script>

i deside to use ajax for it, but how can i write a function in the flash object? thanks in advance

UPDATE: i only have the swfobject.js file, which contains such data

if(typeof deconcept=="undefined"){var deconcept=new Object();}
if(typeof deconcept.util=="undefined"){deconcept.util=new Object();}
if(typeof deconcept.SWFObjectUtil=="undefined"){deconcept.SWFObjectUtil=new Object();}deconcept.SWFObject=function(_1,id,w,h,_5,c,_7,_8,_9,_a){if(!document.getElementById){return;}this.DETECT_KEY=_a?_a:"detectflash";this.skipDetect=deconcept.util.getRequestParameter(this.DETECT_KEY);this.params=new Object();this.variables=new Object();this.attributes=new Array();if(_1){this.setAttribute("swf",_1);}if(id){this.setAttribute("id",id);}if(w){this.setAttribute("width",w);}if(h){this.setAttribute("height",h);}if(_5){this.setAttribute("version",new deconcept.PlayerVersion(_5.toString().split(".")));}this.installedVer=deconcept.SWFObjectUtil.getPlayerVersion();if(!window.opera&&document.all&&this.installedVer.major>7)
...

Scripts in HTML don't get to listen to clicks in plugins. If you want to be informed of a click in a Flash embed, you will have to add code to the Flash movie to pass notification of the click back up to JavaScript.

What video player are you using? It might already offer this feature — check its docs. If not you'll need the source code to alter and recompile.
