In the given code, I need the list of the value of the "value" attribute for each of the options in the select drop-down :

<select id="myselect">

<option value="val2">Some Text</option>
<option value="val3">Some Text</option>

To create a List of all the values of the value attribute for each of the options with in the <select> tag you can use the following Java based solution:

Select dropDownSelect = new Select(driver.findElement(By.id("myselect")));
List<WebElement> dropDownActualValues = dropDownSelect.getOptions();
for(WebElement element:dropDownActualValues)
    System.out.println(element.getAttribute("value"));
