iweb youtube URL is invalid

hi all,


when i enter the URL to a youtube page on an iWeb page, it says that "The YouTube page you have entered is invalid".... any workarounds? I suppose I can download the link as a mp4 and host the mp4, but I'd rather just enter the link. Thanks for the help!

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

Because Youtube gives a redirection link


Look at this page http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrivjzw0RlI

the link to shared is

http://youtu.be/wrivjzw0RlI

If you paste this link in a iWeb YouTube widget, you will see nothing

In a browser, this link redirects

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrivjzw0RlI&feature=youtu.be

delete &feature=youtu.be

and you have the url of your page (my first link) that you can copy and paste in a widget
