The problem was already solved. But I feel like mentioning, that the
Exeption is just "naming" the variables with their content...
the class reads the vars as $t, $p and $s and it dowsn't matter at all
if you call ist with new foo($BAR, $whatever,
$somethingveryverydifferent), as once in the class only the VALUES
count. and yey're being assigned to the function vars $p, $t, $s,
which are being set to PRIVATE vars $rtitle, $problem etc.
Conclusion: The variable handling has no errors!
