  Hi,
  
  I'm trying to get the reference of the label object inside NoRecordsTemplate using client side.
  Is it possible? How?
  
  
  Thanks.
  Dexter

  Hi,
  
  Thank you very much for your reply. Unfortunately, it didn't work. It returns undefined.
  The label i'm trying to access is as below:
  

  <NoRecordsTemplate> 

    <table>

      <tr>

        <td align="center" valign="middle">

          <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblNoRecords" CssClass="label"></asp:Label>

        </td>

      </tr>

    </table>

  </NoRecordsTemplate>

  
  On another matter, the code you sent me :

  $telerik.$(

   

  "tr.rgNoRecords >td>div")[0];
  What kind of accessing method is this? Is this somewhat like XSLT?
  Where is the documentation for this access method?
  
  Regards,
  Dexter

  Hello Dexter,
  
  I was not aware that you are using a custom template. Here is a possible solution:
  

  $telerik.$("tr.rgNoRecords >td").find(".label")[0].innerHTML

  
  Do note that ".label" refers to the css class and not to the type of the server control which besides that is rendered on the client as a <span> element in your case.
  
  And this jQuery - the $telerik.$ exposes its API. More information you can find below:
  http://docs.jQuery.com
  
  Hope it helps.

  Hi Tsvetoslav,
  
  Thanks for your help. Its working now. However, the jquery link you sent me doesn't
  seem to explain how to use the symbols like '>'.  Do you mind giving me another link?
  
  Thanks again.
  Dexter

  Hello Dexter,
  
  Certainly I don't: http://api.jquery.com/category/selectors/ 
  
  In particular, do take a look at the parent-child selector.
