Is there any GridView or extension in Yii that supports Excel-style filtering?

I am looking for a GridView or Yii extension that provides Excel-like filtering — similar to how Microsoft Excel shows a small filter icon in each column header, allowing you to:

  • Filter by selected values (checkbox style)
  • Filter by conditions (e.g., equals, contains, greater than, less than)
  • Clear filters easily
  • Apply per-column filter menus instead of separate input boxes

I am using Yii (1.x / 2.x — depending on your requirement), and currently the default GridView only provides text-input filters. I want something more advanced and user-friendly, like:

  • Dropdown filter menu on each column
  • Excel-style filter UI
  • Ideally supports sorting, multi-filtering, and maybe column search
  • Works with AJAX-based GridView updates

If anyone knows:

  • A Yii extension
  • A jQuery plugin
  • Or a third-party data-grid library that can be integrated with Yii easily

…please recommend it.
