Look at the parts:
1. http://www.youtube.com/ ~ 1st part
2. watch?v= ~ 2nd part
3. d01RLnJBQzc ~ 3rd part
Eliminate:
A. watch? and keep the v B. = is eliminated too C. v remains for part #2 as the only letter needed D. add a second forward slash " / " so you corral the v
Rebuild the address:
http://www.youtube.com/v/d01RLnJBQzc
Add brackets to the address line so it 'embeds':
I. [opening bracket]http://www.youtube.com/v/dO1RLnJBQzc[/closing bracket] [] < Use this bracket and corral the address line. Corral means to leave no space. So first thing is see how the brackets have no space at the addy?
II. [no slash]http://www.youtube.com/v/dO1RLnJBQzc[/forwardslash] / < Forward shows the pole leaning to the right as opposed leaning left (\) is a backslash. When you test, see the addy is still the addy, where is my bracket? Did I place it there? Were are my brackets? Did I space them away from the addy or is one spaced away? This is what I look for when I test a code line and it does not come up correctly: I can click on my 'edit' button, see if my tag line is written correctly? That's why I have a blank message board with nothing in it?
III. I can get away with poor programming that shows the correct addy build as you see. I have the correct bracket build, but to close the embedded code line, I need to write the correct words into the brackets. So my brackets should always look like this with utube written in it.
I need my forward slash at the closing bracket. I need my forward slash after the v in the address. I need my brackets not to have a space at either end of the rebuilt address.

So take that corrected address with the /v/, add the code brackets to it, write in 'utube' in the brackets and see what comes up? Don't forget the closing bracket and the right slash angle.
