Youtube embeded video not working in all my browsers: FireFox, IE and Chrome
I'm trying to embed a video into my webpage which has a hide/show div function, the hide/show div works but the embedded video doesn't, in Firefox when I click on the text that shows the div with the contained YouTube video it just shows a black patch (I think that's because that's the colour of my back-ground) but if I launch it in Chrome it shows a white box saying that the webpage cannot be found, and IE says that it cant find the webpage as well.
I copied the embed code straight from the YouTube video its self from the share button, its using the '<iframe>' tag rather than the '<object>' tag, I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.
Here is the embed code of the video I wish to embed:
<iframe width="640" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/1qNQHv6jdyY?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
And here is my webpage so far (not finished yet):
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Index</TITLE>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="DubWin By Chris Mckee-Rogers.css">
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
function toggleShowHide(elementId) {
var element = document.getElementById(elementId);
if (element) {
if (element.style.display == "none")
element.style.display = "inline";
else
element.style.display = "none";
}
}
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>

Thanks for all of your help.
Answer
Youtube uses //www to be compliant if you're using both http:// and https:// - it works fine if you run it via a webserver locally, ie WAMP on Windows, but not if you just open the file in the browser with the file://
Reference - Two forward slashes in a url/src/href attribute
