Asp.Net: Handle empty list in Repeater

Repeater in Asp.Net Webforms is a commonly used user control for presenting lists data. It's quite handy but it lacks support for empty lists.

Below is a simple workaround:

   
      
   
   
      
   
   
      
      <asp:Label ID="lblEmptyList"
                 runat="server"
                 Text="The list is empty" 
                 Visible='<%#bool.Parse((RptrMyList.Items.Count==0).ToString())%>'>
      </asp:Label>
