Datatable emptyMessage is not shown in PF5.3 - primefaces

Question

I am using PF 5.3, on (weblogic 11g/jsf2.0/java 1.6).
I thought the issue of not shown emptyMessage in Datatable is fixed in 5.3, but inspite of using the latest version, i still dont see the message. Below is my sample code.
<p:dataTable id="attaDt" var="fileRow" value="#{pendpaybean.selectedPayDetailsFiles}"
rowIndexVar="rowIndex"
emptyMessage="No Files Uploaded"
>
<p:column headerText="Uploaded Date"
width="15px;" style="text-align:center"
>
<h:outputText value="#{fileRow.columns[0]}" />
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Uploaded By"
width="30px;" style="text-align:center"
>
<h:outputText value="#{fileRow.columns[3]}" />
</p:column>
</p:datatable>
Any help ?

Answer 1

Your code works well. NOTE I put attribute value to null for showing emptyMessage.
Your adapted code:
<h:body>
<h:form>
<p:dataTable id="attaDt" value="#{null}" var="fileRow" rowIndexVar="rowIndex" emptyMessage="No Files Uploaded">
<p:column headerText="Uploaded Date" width="15px;" style="text-align:center">
<h:outputText value="#{fileRow.columns[0]}" />
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Uploaded By" width="30px;" style="text-align:center">
<h:outputText value="#{fileRow.columns[3]}" />
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
</h:form>
</h:body>
