Hi
From the manual:
(Portal System/Community System only)
URL modules display Web page content from outside of the Blackboard Academic Suite. From this page view, the URL of the Web page is entered. The content from the URL will appear in the module. URL Modules should be tested before making them available to ensure that the content will display correctly in a module.
URL Modules differ from External Links Modules because they display the actual content of the URL instead of a link to the URL.

Subject: URL Modules
Hi,
I have created a URL module (linking to the Bb Home page). When this module is added to a tab it takes up almost all of the available display width. I have used different percentages to control the display (including the default column widths of 150px, 50%, 50%) but that has no effect.
I have tried this with different URLs and it acts in the same manner all the time. There was one exception which is: I moved the module from left to right column and that solved the display problem.
Can someone please explain why this display problem occurs with URL modules .
thanks,
Arthur Loughran
