--[Yes, you need mod_rewrite:]--

Thanks.  Next step is then persuading my webhost to install it.  :)

I've got a hosted Apache server without mod_rewrite and am editing an
.htaccess file.
I want to do something like this:

RedirectMatch ^/muon1/banner_(.*)\.jpg$
http://stephenbrooks.org/muon1/banner.php?user=$1

...so that filenames such as /muon1/banner_me.jpg are served by the script
/muon1/banner.php?user=me on stephenbrooks.org (my server).

However, the above rule escapes the question mark into a %3f, interpreting the whole thing as the URL and the complaining a file with a question mark
in its name is not found!  I played with:

SetEnv QUERY_STRING <something>

...and various conditional rules for a while, but haven't had much success. In fact, I don't even seem to be able to set the query string in a way that a PHP script will pick up. Does Apache even allow this? (Relatedly, does
this require mod_rewrite?)
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

Yes, you need mod_rewrite:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/muon1/banner_(.*)\.jpg$
http://stephenbrooks.org/muon1/banner.php?user=$1 [R]
