how to keep selected filter option dropdown selected after CGridView update in Yii 1.1.14?

One of the filter options in my CGridView in Yii 1.1.14, has this

        array(
            'header' => 'Status',
            'name' => 'status',
            'filter' => CHtml::dropDownList('MyModel[status]','status', array(
                    '' => '',
                    '0' => 'Approved',
                    '1' => 'Pending',
                    '2' => 'Rejected'
            )),
            'type' => 'raw',
            'value' => 'MyHelper::model()->getStatus($data->status)',
            'htmlOptions' => array('width' => '8%')
        ),

My problem is, whenever I select one from the dropdown filter, the CGridView updates the result which is right, but then the selected option from the dropdown disappears, I mean it doesn't remain selected. How to keep it selected?

Whenever your gridview reloads, firstly the call goes to you controller's action there you must have declared you model's variable/object, so in your controller's action you can set this variable to your model like this : 

$myModel->status = $_GET['status'];

and when call returns to your view, there you can check for the value, that is set to that 'status' variable.

You have to pass selected value to dropDownList. like below

  CHtml::dropDownList('MyModel[status]', MyModel->status, array(
                '' => '',
                '0' => 'Approved',
                '1' => 'Pending',
                '2' => 'Rejected'
        )),

I have given default Approved status. i.e second parameter of dropDownList function.
