The third one is the only one which works. The syntax used in the first example works occasionally in other CFML tags (the obvious example being CFSET) but not within all of them. The syntax used in the second one won't ever work with this or other tags, because it's referring to a literal string with a value of "agents". The first one is not referring to a literal string, and the third one is referring to a literal string, but within that string the variable agents is being evaluated.
