In this case, I believe you do need to use evaluate (unless you are on
MX!). However, your code will use N evaluates, where N is the rowcount.
You can get around this by doing one:
<cfset theQuery = evaluate("caller.#attributes.query#")>
Then your code gets MUCH easier:
<cfoutput query="theQuery">
<option value="#theQuery[attributes.value][currentRow]#" etc
