When using mod_rewrite, if the rewrite rule does not include a
pass-through, then the query string is not passed on to the script in
question. So, if you request the page directly with:
http://www.mysite.com/page.php?id=1
it will process correctly, but if you have a rewrite rule that doesn't
have the pass-through flag, then when the URL is _rewritten_ to the above,
the page is requested _without_ the query string -- even though the rule
rewrites the URL with a query string.
A rule that would (probably) work would look something like this:
RewriteRule page/(.*) /page.php?id=$1 [L,PT]
