We are using ice-cc:autoSortTable and in the footer section there is an extra blank space if no data available.

Kindly use the "c:if condition" not to show footer if no data which is used in the ICEFaces 1.8 version like below in the autoSortTable.xhtml with ICEFaces 3.3.0_P07 version and patch it for us include before two patches.

We don't want to show any unwanted white blank space
