You are probably facing the issue in chrome where you cant switch to frame

driver.switchTo().frame() has the ability to select the frame | iframe based on the id or name attribute. Assuming you aren't using it down the road, make it easy on yourself and just do,

base.getWebDriver().switchTo().frame("cwindow");

Also, you should consider learning CSS. (By.cssSelector())

iframe#cwindow

is much prettier than 

//iframe[@id='cwindow']

(much faster too)

As far as the cross-browser issue, it's possible that what @joostschouten said is accurate, about the <head> tag not ending, and chrome might be complaining about that.

Your HTML is invalid. Amongst others, your <head> may not be unclosed or empty. The fact that some browsers render it and allow you to find elements though their webdriver is because they are leniant and try to guess what you mean with your HTML. I also see a lot of empty <script> tags and unclosed <div> tags leaving me to believe you have not posted the exact HTML code.

Validate your HTML though the W3C Markup Validator. Once valid, try again and your code should give you your match. Though it won't find your header while using the xpath //div[@class='form input'] as that to me seems to be an xpath to form input in stead.
