load config product:

   $currentProduct = Mage::getModel('catalog/product_type_configurable')->setProduct($this->getProduct());;

    $products = array();

        $skipSaleableCheck = Mage::helper('catalog/product')->getSkipSaleableCheck();

getting all all simple products

    $allProducts = $conf->getTypeInstance(true)
            ->getUsedProducts(null, $conf);

    foreach ($allProducts as $product) {
        $products[] =  $product;
    }
        getting all configurable attribute of that products
        $AllowAttributes=$conf->getTypeInstance(true)
            ->getConfigurableAttributes($conf);

Getting config attribute for this product by attribute value id and label

    foreach ($products as $product) {
       foreach ($AllowAttributes as $attribute) {

            $productAttribute   = $attribute->getProductAttribute();
            $productAttributeId = $productAttribute->getId();
            $attributeValue     = $product->getData($productAttribute->getAttributeCode());
            /* Simple Product data */

            /* getting option text value */
            if ($productAttribute->usesSource()) {
                 $MYabel = $productAttribute->getSource()->getOptionText($attributeValue );
            }else{
                 $MYabel='';
            }


        }
    }

How to Delete Configurable Product Attributes

When you have some configurable products created on the basis of that attribute you can't delete the attribute. But if you want to really delete that attribute, you have to delete the products first.
You will not find any hacky method for it. These attributes are saved in eav attribute table and products just get its id (attribute_id) to relate. so if you delete the attribute, you will face errors like "something is being load non-object..." etc, and you may even not be able to edit that product at backend nor it will load at frontend. so be cautious before committing such things on live.

Magento – Get simple product id from configurable product selection

See: $product->getTypeInstance()->getProductByAttributes($attributesInfo, $product); from Mage_Catalog_Model_Product_Type_Configurable.

Edit:

This is a question like the catchy ones from job interviews. Do you need this on configurable product page on frontend ?

In app/code/base/default/template/catalog/product/type/options/configurable.phtml there is:

var spConfig = new Product.Config(<?php echo $this->getJsonConfig() ?>);

You need to extend this object. Either add your function in the class or extend an existing function that you'll need. http://prototypejs.org/learn/class-inheritance

In the JSON config passed to spConfig by default there is the options key and a deeper products key. You can use this config in your JS function. On any configurable product page copy paste the JSON object and format it with a tool for ease of understanding. The JSON is built in Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_View_Type_Configurable::getJsonConfig().

In the JS class there is:

this.settings.each(function(element){
    Event.observe(element, 'change', this.configure.bind(this))
}.bind(this));

In the configureElement function there is the call:

this.reloadPrice();

In function reloadPrice an iteration on the dropdowns is made. Your code should mimic this iteration to check if all available dropdowns were selected. On success your custom code comes in.

Is it an Ajax call to fetch dynamic content ? I would not recommend it. Instead try to have the dynamic content/data of associated products available in the rendered page in a JSON object handled by you custom JS class.
