flash

I assume you mean after you've created a flash movie using Flash MX or Flash 8? You must open them with the flash player.
 
Well you can embed it into an HTML document, which is easy with Dreamweaver, and you can also export flash files as HTML to be viewed as a webpage.

After that, you must upload your site to a web-hosting domain so that people can go on the web to see it. There are usually some easy to find free hosting sites which give limited bandwidth per month, if you want a big website with lots of traffic you might consider purchasing more bandwidth from one of these sites. Or you could purchase a domain as well.

Hmm, well I am at work right now so I do not have access to Dreamweaver to refer to, but the code looks alright. You should try playing it in different browsers, ensure you have the flash plugin installed and make sure that the flash movie itself is set to play correctly.

You can also try exporting the flash movie as HTML if you can't get it to work.
 
When you're embedding, you're having the file play in a webpage. If it's not working by embedding you should try actually converting the movie into HTML webpage. Go to Flash, and open your movie, go to Export and choose the options for exporting as HTML, this will make the flash movie into a webpage and you won't have to embed it in Dreamweaver.
