This seems to work:
<cfsavecontent variable="DropDown">
<select name="whatever">
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
<option value="3">Three</option>
</select>
</cfsavecontent>
<cfoutput>
#DropDown#
<br><br>
#DropDown#
<br><br>
#DropDown#
</cfoutput>
You could just make whatever you need dynamic in the cfsavecontent block.
