How to count the rows in a gridview in asp.net using jQuery

Question

Does anyone know how to count the no of rows in asp:GridView using jQuery. If no rows found then I want to do stuff...

Answer 1

I tried this var totalRows = $("#<%=GridView1.ClientID %> tr").length; and it failed when I tried

var count = $get("mygridviewclientid").rows.length

it gave the count of all the rows (th and tr) I also made sure that the attribute ClientIDMode="Static"
