HTML not showing up

At the top of this view, there is an HTML paragraph that just displays a link to the application home and splunk home. The HTML does not show up in the view. I get no errors, nor do I get the HTML. Any idea why it does not show up? Thanks in advance

<?xml version="1.0"?>

I think the problem is just that the moduleName is emptystring?

<module name="">

Maybe you've found a case where it doesn't give you the normal big error saying "module foo is not defined".
