Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_ Operator

[Gorris]

I am having problems solving a problem on a website that I currently took over. The above error is displayed on the contact form as well as the e-mailer. The code is below:

$transport = Swift_SmtpTransport::newInstance($smtpServer, $smtpPort)
                    ->setUsername($mailUsername)
                    ->setPassword($mailPassword);
                    $mailer = Swift_Mailer::newInstance($transport);
                    // Create the message
                    $message = Swift_Message::newInstance()
                    // Give the message a subject
                    ->setSubject($title)
                    // Set the From address with an associative array
                    ->setFrom(array($mailFromAddress => $mailFromName))
                    // Set the To addresses with an associative array
                    ->setTo(array($email => $name))
                    // Give it a body
                    ->setBody($description, 'text/html')
                    ->addPart($description, 'text/plain')
                    ->setReturnPath($returnEmail)

 

I just started coding in php so I'm not quite sure what needs to be done. Searching google.com has brought no resolve. Any information  would be greatly appreciated. Thank you ahead of time.

Take some good php IDE and you'll find problems like this less than 10 sec.

Is there a certain one that I should be using? Currently writing code in notepad ++. Thanks for the help by the way.

As far as I know notepad++ is not an IDE it's a text/code editor. My personal choice is NetBeans.

Yeah, I knew notepad ++ was just a text editor. I downloaded NetBeans and will see if I can figure out the problem. Thanks a lot.

I figured out my problem. The hosting server that I use was not set to PHP 5. Once I changed it to that instead of the default settings everything started working correctly.
