JQuery functions don't work. Ready handler included

This simple block of code won't execute in my browser for some reason. None of the JQuery functions execute, even with a ready handler on. 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC>
<html>
  <head>    
    <title></title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <button id="btn">click me</button> 

    <script type="text/javascript">

        $(document).ready(function(){
           $('#btn').css("font-size", "1.5em");
           $('#btn').click(function(){
              $('#btn').hide();
           });
        });

    </script>
    <script src=
    "//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js" type=
    "text/javascript">
</script>
  </body>
</html>

The ready handler is called after jquery is fully initialized, only then you can be sure all jquery features will do what they are supposed to.

Have the .js file loaded before executing the jQuery calls:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC>
 <html>
   <head>    
     <title></title>
   </head>
   <body>
   <button id="btn">click me</button> 
   <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js" />

   <script type="text/javascript">

    $(document).ready(function(){
       $('#btn').css("font-size", "1.5em");
       $('#btn').click(function(){
          $('#btn').hide();
       });
    });

   </script>

The "http" is missing in the URL to jquery.
