Display a message within the Kendo grid when it's empty

Question

I\'m trying to display a friendly message (like \"No records found, try again later\") within the grid content, when there are no records in the database.

Can't you do something like this -

if(this.tbody.rows.length === 0) {
     alert('no records');
     return;
}

Or you are looking for something even cleaner something inbuilt in Kendo? I think, this is an issue still there in Kendo UI which hasn't been fixed yet See this - http://www.telerik.com/forums/empty-grid-norecords-template
