Yes, just remove eval and concatenate the selector string from the parts :-)
$(this).siblings('[EMAIL PROTECTED]"' + attrName + '"]').toggle();
You don't really need the extra variable (at least in the example you gave):
$('table.grouped tr.group').click(function() {
$(this).siblings('[EMAIL PROTECTED]"' + $(this).attr('grp') +
'"]').toggle();
});
In addition you don't need the "return false" because a table row does
not have a default action to prevent.
