How to redirect a specific page to home page in .htaccess?

Question

I want to redirect a specific page to home page.

My source URL is http://examlple.com/index.html?page=22

My target URL is http://examlple.com/

I have tried Redirect /index.html?page=22 http://example.com/

also I have tried by using 301 and RewriteRule but no success yet, this is not working.

You can't match against querystrings in Redirect directive.

Try mod_rewrite

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^page=22$
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ http://example.com/? [NC,L,R]

Empty question ? mark at the end is important as it will discard the original query string from url.

My code is working fine on my apache server, it redirects http://example.com/index.html?page=22 to http://example.com .Do u have any other rules in htaccess that can conflict with this one? – Amit Verma Nov 19 '15 at 07:10
no there is no rule. my url is http://examlple.com/?page_id=22 and this page redirect to http://examlple.com/ without any query string – psanjib Nov 19 '15 at 07:31
Ok, if you want query strings to be appended to the target url, then remove the **?** from **http://example.com/?** – Amit Verma Nov 19 '15 at 07:54
sorry to say its not working for me, have you any solution? – psanjib Nov 20 '15 at 05:07
what happens when you type http://example.com/index.html?page=22 ? with **index.html** – Amit Verma Nov 20 '15 at 05:12
same page loaded, don't redirected to home page – psanjib Nov 20 '15 at 05:54
Are you sure mod_rewrite is enabled on your server? – Amit Verma Nov 20 '15 at 05:58
