| | A label serves as a spacer on a Moodle course page.It can be used to add text,images, multimedia or code in between other resources in the different sections. It is a very versatile resource and can help to improve the appearance of a course if used thoughtfully. Banners or descriptions may be added to labels to distinguish between and highlight different areas. |

| == Use a label to display an external web page within a label ==
| |
| | |
| An exciting possibility for labels allows external or internal pages to be displayed in the middle of the moodle screen (instead of just putting a link to them)
| |
| | |
| ===How===
| |
| * Create a label
| |
| * Display raw HTML code (use the editor button <>)
| |
| * Insert code like: <iframe width="100%" height="200" align="middle" src="http://www.google.com" border="0"></iframe>
| |
| | |
| Additionally, labels allow more flexible formatting of moodle resources e.g. place links to resources in a table so that many can be offered in the same line, thus reducing the need to scroll through a course page.
| |
| | |
| The actual resources still need to exist in the course, perhaps in an admin topic at the very bottom.
| |
| *Turn editing on by clicking the '''Turn editing on''' button.
| |
| | |
| *In the content area in which you wish to put the label, click the '''Add a resource...''' drop-down menu. choose Insert a label.
| |
| | |
| A new window will appear where you can type your label.
| |
| | |
| ===Quick Tip===
| |
| Before entering any text hit the Shift+Enter key (hold-down the Shift key and hit the Enter key on your keyboard) to skip to the second line. This will prevent labels and resources from bunching up together.
| |
| Be careful NOT to hit the Enter key alone since this will create an undesired paragraph.
| |
| | |
| When you're finished be sure to click the '''Save changes''' button.
