add autoplay to youtube iframe on button click jquery not working

I am using custom buttons to keep my design consistent. I have added a button which is layered on top of the iframe using the z-index property in CSS. Onclick the iframe reacts but does not begin to play. I have used this code on other websites and it worked fine.

iframe

z-index

iframe

This code works in Safari but not in Chrome. I am not sure if maybe I should try re-installing Chrome.

I have also added 1 other lines which I have tried (commented out). Can anyone suggest why this is not working on chrome?

$('#playLucid').click(function() $('#playLucid').css('display', 'none'); //$("#expose").attr('src','https://www.youtube.com/embed/7bU-x8pJbig?autoplay=1'); $("#expose")[0].src += "?autoplay=1"; );

What type of element is #expose? Also note that Chrome has strict rules on when it will/will not allow a video to be auto played. I'd suggest you read this guide to ensure you're following them fully.

This May Work:

<iframe type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/..?autoplay=1" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay"> </iframe>

If it doesn't work, try adding mute=1 or muted=1:

mute=1

muted=1

src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/..?autoplay=1&mute=1

I needed to add "allow="autoplay". This helped me find the solution. So thank you.
