Thanks for your help.
It was a bit of a battle but with the help of the_CName it was finally 
solved. Notes have been added to 
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/MarkupExtensions

First - I found that several of the Cookbook items will not work with 
PHP version 4.3.9-7 (my internal network version). You must have 4.3.10. 
Things I could get working on the web sites would not work on my intranet.

Second - there were some things missing in the documentation that had me 
missing things that are now "obvious"

Third -  the character "_" IS IMPORTANT!
I kept putting include_once('cookbook/breakpage');
instead of
I kept putting include_once('cookbook/break_page'); and I do know 
better:-P I just kept missing my typing mistake.

Have a good day everyone
