I'm wondering:

Is the [L] a problem?
Should the ? in the RedirectMatch be escaped by a backslash?
Do I need an [R] somewhere?
Do I need to escape all my periods with backslashes?

I'm experimenting with these but haven't had any luck yet. I also added a
forward slash, which was recommended to me, so it looks like this now:
RedirectMatch 301 /index.php?p=(.*)$ http://www.mywebsite1234.com/$1.htm
