phpMailer blank page when creating multiple instances of the class

Question

Hi. I am creating a function to send a notification email to a user using the phpMailer lib.

 public function notify($address,$subject = '',$body = null,$mailer_options = array()) {
        try {
            $phpmailer = new PHPMailer($exceptions = true);
            $phpmailer->CharSet = 'UTF-8';
            $phpmailer->IsSMTP();
            $phpmailer->SMTPAuth = true;
            $phpmailer->SMTPKeepAlive = true;
            //$phpmailer->SMTPDebug = true;
            $phpmailer->IsHTML(true);

            $phpmailer->Host = ...
            $phpmailer->Username = ...
            $phpmailer->Password = ...
            $phpmailer->From = ...
            $phpmailer->FromName =...


            $phpmailer->AddAddress($address);
            $phpmailer->Subject = $subject;
            $phpmailer->Body = $body;

            $phpmailer->Send();
            $phpmailer->ClearAllRecipients();
}

It works fine if i just send an email or sending multiple emails inside the class. But if do

for($i=0;$i<3;$++)
{
   $notification = new $Notification();
   $notification->notify(...);
}

It retuns a blank page. No errors, messages, nothing. Before you ask i have display_errors turned on.

What can it be?

It works fine if i just have one instance of phpmailer like this:

$phpmailer = new PHPMailer($exceptions = true);
(...)

       for($i=0;$i<3;$i++)
       {
            $phpmailer->AddAddress('address');
            $phpmailer->Subject = "";
            $phpmailer->Body = "sasa";

            $phpmailer->Send();
            $phpmailer->ClearAllRecipients();
       }

Remove the $ from new Notification:

for($i=0;$i<3;$++)
{
   $notification = new Notification();
   $notification->notify(...);
}

new $Notification will create a new instance from the value of variable $Notification. That would only work if $Notification really contains "Notification" (assuming your class is named "Notification")

If you've turned display_errors on in your PHP script, but the server has disabled it by default, errors won't be displayed if there is a syntax error in your script.
