How do you use the MVCContrib Grid control?

Question

I'm trying to use the GRID control in the MVCContrib library with my controller. The paging control for their Grid seems to have a big limitation, it only outputs a URL as MyPage.aspx?page=2. So when I press NEXT PAGE on the control is spits out "MyPage.aspx?page=2"

My control looks like this:

    public ActionResult Index(int? page)
    {

And my routing table looks like this:

routes.MapRoute("admin", "admin/{page}", new { controller = "Admin", action = "Index", page = 1 });

For some reason my controller is not collecting the page querystring correctly. It just always appears as 1. If I send a URL such as admin/2 it works...but not when sent as admin?page=2.

What am I doing wrong?

I think you can find your answer here: ASP.NET MVC QueryString defaults overriding supplied values?

Hope this helps
