making video open using button class

Hey – I’ve been using your plugin extensively and love it. Just hit a snag.

I need to open a video in lightbox using a coded button. This is the code:

<a href="https://vimeo.com/xxxxxx">
View Video<i class="icon icon-arrow-right"></i></a></strong>

I attempted it this way but, of course, it doesn’t quite work – it creates a link without the button:

<a class="yes" href="https://vimeo.com/xxxxxx">View Video<i class="icon icon-arrow-right"></i></a>

Here’s a screenshot of how the button forms with the first code block:

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
