There is no built-in empty template for DataList control, but you can use a label to show the message by using your dataSource selected event:
OnSelected=”SqlDataSource1_Selected”
Protected Sub SqlDataSource1_Selected(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.SqlDataSourceStatusEventArgs) Handles SqlDataSource1.Selected
If e.AffectedRows = 0 Then
myLabel.Text = “No record found!”
Else
myLabel.Text = “”
End If
End Sub
Thanks for your information GoodLuck
Visible=”
can be reduced to
Visible=”
ahem, next try:
Visible= '<%# bool.Parse((dlContacts.Items.Count==0).ToString()) %>'
can be reduced to
Visible= ' < %# dlContacts.Items.Count==0 % > '

Hi, I think your blog might be having internet browser compatibility
issues. When I take a look at your site in Safari, it looks fine
however, when opening in I.E., it’s got some overlapping issues. I simply wanted to give you a quick heads up! Apart from that, fantastic site!
Fascinating blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?
A design like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make
my blog jump out. Please let me know where you got your theme.
Cheers
It’s an awesome article in support of all the online people; they will take benefit from it I am sure.
Thank you
