1. Set "rows":[] for json array

2. Append your error container on success as

   onLoadSuccess: function() {
       **var rows = $(this).datagrid("getRows");**
   if(rows.length == 0)
   {
   
     $("#errordiv").show();
     $(".datagrid-view").append('
   Ur Message
   ');
   }
   else
    $("#errordiv").hide();
   
   
    }
