Just a hunch: do you get the same permissions output for the dotfiles as
the normal ones?
Thanks for the idea. I am not sure what you mean by "permissions output" but it is same owner and an "ls -la" gives
-rwxr-xr-x 1 frank wheel 27 Apr 29 23:05 .mydotfile.php
-rwxr-xr-x 1 frank wheel 0 Apr 29 23:08 myfile.php

I BTW forgot to tell that I am on PHP 4.1.1
BTW - if I introduce syntax errors in .mydotfile they are ignored - it is like PHP does not read the content at all. But take away the leading dot and it is all as expected.
Mystified!

* and then Frank declared....
.mydotfile.php:
<?php
echo "I am here!";
?>
myfile.php:
<?php
require '.mydotfile.php';
?>
When I run myfile.php there is no output!
