Hello list,

My PHP acts unexpected when requiring files with a leading dot. I'm on 
FreeBSD 4.3

In a directory I have the following two files:

.mydotfile.php:
<?php
echo "I am here!";
?>

myfile.php:
<?php
require '.mydotfile.php';
?>


When I run myfile.php there is no output!

If I rename .mydotfile to something without a leading dot and change the 
name in the require-statement it writes "I am here!", as expected.

If I try to require a non-existing dot file PHP complains, as expected.

So - why don't I get an output from the run when written as above?

I know that it has worked as expected earlier, but after an upgrade (I 
think) I now get this strange problem. I have tried to play with the 
include_path but without result.

Anyone have a clue?

Best,

Frank
