            }

Error 1 The name 'hideInPageLoad' does not exist in the current context

Answer 1

Because hideInPageLoad is inside Gridview EmptyDataTemplate, Could try out this:

 protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
         if(!IsPostBack){
            try
            {
                if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(tbSearch.Text))
                {
                    HtmlGenericControl Emptydiv=(HtmlGenericControl)gvAcheologyMonuments.Controls[0].Controls[0].FindControl("hideInPageLoad") ;
                    Emptydiv.Style.Add("Display", "none");
                }
        }
      }
    }
