"name": "<?php echo $table; ?>.Status",
"type": "select",
"ipOpts": [

                                     { "label": "APPROVAL 1", "value": "APPROVED 1" },
                                    { "label": "APPROVAL 2", "value": "APPROVED 2" },
                                    { "label": "APPROVAL 3", "value": "APPROVED 3" },
                                    { "label": "APPROVAL 4", "value": "APPROVED 4" }, 
                                    { "label": "GREEN-APPROVED", "value": "green" },
                                    { "label": "RED-UNAPPROVED", "value": "red" },
                                    { "label": "YELLOW-SUBMITTED", "value": "yellow" },
                                    { "label": "ORANGE-IMPORTED", "value": "orange" },
                                    { "label": "BLUE-PROTOTYPE", "value": "blue" },
                                    { "label": "BLACK-OBSELETE", "value": "black" }
                                    ] 
                            }

But it always select first option regardless of the value.

How could i make it where it select dropdown option based on value we get in ajax data.

Thanks

Please take a look at this: https://editor.datatables.net/examples/advanced/joinArray

In the server script you see the options instance that retrieves the options for "users.site" from the server.
