First to the original question: yes, querys are allowed in Location
headers, according to RFC 2616 (HTTP 1.1) and RFC 2396 (URI Generic
Syntax). And, they've always worked for me, so your problem must be
elsewhere.
Did you try print_r($_REQUEST); in the receiving script?

Yup, totally. Function call syntax list is like this:
<function-name>(<expr1>[, <expr2>][, . . .]) { <statement block> }
Any argument may be an expression. If that expression evaluates to the
type which that function is expecting for that argument, so much the
better. :) Just remember that the argument expressions are always
evaluated *first*, and the resulting values are then passed to the
function.
Hope this helps,
