Embedded video issue

I have added the YouTube code to my html file however upon loading the page in Chrome the video flashes black where it should be and then disappears. I can right click and it just says that the movie has not loaded.

Any help?

Have you tried it with different browsers. If not try to re copy and paste your code. their could also be an unclosed bracket somewhere in your code which could be doing this.

Thanks, I worked it out. It was because the links inside the object were missing the "http" part. That's all!
