.htaccess 301 not working

I am moving some pages to a new site and need to redirect some pages 301 in .htaccess.

Code:

Redirect 301 /arreler/bss.php?id=295&recipe_title=Ofte_blank%3F http://www.mydomain23.org/ofte-blank%3F

is not working, please help.

Is it possible that htaccess cannot handle urls with a "?" ?

Thanks

I have the feeling that apache filters out the GET parameters (stuff after that ? in the first URL parameter) before it gets to that filter, to try changing that to /arreler/bss.php. Also, if you want them to be redirected only if those GET parameters are present, you can use the PHP header() function.

Thanks.
Can you please guide me to an explanation of that PHP header() function? How can I use that when the pages are dynamic generated from a db?
