Try this, as it should work:
var myDiv = document.createElement('div');
myDiv.id = 'something';
document.body.appendChild(myDiv);
swfobject.embedSWF('flash.swf', 'something', ....);
---------------------
As for the jQuery extension thing, here's a jQuery plugin for SWFObject,
though I'm not so sure on how much of its internals are really SWFObject
natives:
http://jquery.thewikies.com/swfobject/
(bonus, that plugin even has its own theme song! listen and enjoy!)
