Attributecollection can be used both with cfmodule and 'normal' cf_
custom tag calls. All it does is let you dynamically pass attributes to
a tag. As you know, you can't do this:
<cf_foo
<cfif 1>
x=1
</cfif>
y=1
>
But attributeCollection allows you to do this:
<cfset s = structNew()>
<cfif 1>
<cfset s.x = 1>
</cfif>
<cf_foo attributeCollection="#s#" y=1>
Note - I didn't pass a struct... technically, I passed x=1. Kinda
confusing, but I think you can get the idea.
