asp.net mvc default parameter attribute

Question

Is there a way to set a default value on a parameter that was not passed, for eg:

    public ActionResult Index(int? page)
    {}

I'd like to have page=0 if no page was passed, so I can remove the nullable symbol. I do not want to do this in routing, just on the action itself.

Have you tried:

public ActionResult Index(int page = 0)
{}

New in C# 2010 is the ability for optional parameters:

public ActionResult Index(int page = 0)     
{

}
