The Other Search Engines

A few things:

I tried setting up redirects like so:

RewriteRule ^mortgage/residential/lenders/bmo$ lenders.php?pg=BMO

This worked for me... But this did't:

RewriteRule ^mortgage/residential/lenders/bmo$ lenders.php?pg=BMO [R=permanent]

Does anyone know why... It doesn't matter what I put in the []'s I get a 404 error.

Also,

I had published the dynamic pages a few days ago and I couldn't getting the rewrites until just now (about 3 days later). I tried to setup a redirect like so:

RewriteRule ^lenders/index\.php?pg=BMO$ mortgages/residential/lenders/bmo

So... it should cycle to the previous rewrite and rewrite it correctly.

Can someone please help me out here as to why this isn't working?

Would anyone be able to break down the following code and let me know what is going on??

Code:

RewriteEngine on 
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain\.com 
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [R=permanent,L]
