Stopping/muting audio

How would I be able to pause the following audio object when a link with the class "iFrame" is clicked?

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="../flash/player_mp3_maxi.swf" width="140" height="20">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
<param name="movie" value="../flash/player_mp3_maxi.swf">
<param name="FlashVars" value="configxml=../flash/config.xml&amp;mp3=../audio/intro/intro_08_background_07.mp3">
<p>Flash Audio Player</p>
</object>

I need to write the code in javascript or jquery.

Provided it's your own .swf and that you can recompile it, I'd say you need to expose the players pause method using ExternalInterface. If you haven't done it before, have a look at http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=19_External_Interface_04.html

Once you've done that you just add an event listener to the HTML link and assign a function to be triggered when the user clicks. This function calls the exposed flash function to pause.

theLink.addEventListener("click", function(e){
    //call the exposed flash pause function
    swfObject.theExposedFunction();
});

Makes sense?
