Need .htaccess Rewrite Rule To Remove Trailing <br%20/>

I have links that for some reason have a trailing and I don't know where they are coming from to try and fix them. So I need a general rewrite rule to remove them so the links won't show up as 404's. I am using amazon-linux-ami/2014.09 and my Apache is Apache/2.2.29 (Amazon). This is the original link: abc.com/pages.php?pageid=265 Here is what I have tried: ### Strip
from CMS Page Endings - /pages.php?pageid=265 RewriteRule ^/pages\.php\?pageid=([0-9]+)()?$ /pages.php?pageid=$1? [R=301,L] When this rule is used I get this instead. abc.com/pages.php?pageid=265
What I want is abc.com/pages.php?pageid=265 with the option for the pageid to be any number. Since I don't have the reputation I removed the http://www .
