[users@httpd] Redirect(Match) and query string

Hi,

I am trying to write Redirect and RedirectMatch directives
the redirect to a URL with query parameters.

For example:
Redirect /app/ http://my.server.com/some/path/page.jsp?op=start
RedirectMatch /short/(.*) http://my.server.com/some/long/path/page.jsp?op=$1

Apache is escaping the question mark so the redirect does
not work.

I know that this can be done with mode_rewrite, but I
don't have that module loaded (I cannot change that).

Is there some other workaround for this problem?

In what versions of Apache was this problem fixed?

Thanks,
Marius

The problem seems to be fixed in Apache 2.

I guess there is no work around in Apache 1.3 other
than using mod_rewrite :-(
