I think that you can use a scriplet to define the property name:
<% String property = null; %>
<logic:iterate ... indexID="index">
<html:select property="key">
<% property = "select" + index; %>
<html:options collection="<%= property %>" property="id"
labelProperty="description" />
</html:select>
</logic:iterate>
Hope it helps
