I think you need to put some '/' in there somewhere to show act as delimiters.
Try looking at http://php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php

Try with this:

Code:

$nq = preg_replace("/&page=[a-zA-Z0-9]*/", "", $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

Code:

$nq = preg_replace("#&page=[a-zA-Z0-9]*#", "", $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

Code:

$nq = preg_replace("#\&page=[a-zA-Z0-9]*#", "", $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

(not sure if you need to escape the amp.. try both out)
