I have a route in my web application to a web forms page that maps to the url '/contact'.

When I drop the MVC Grid in my app it uses this url format when doing ajax requests:

http://{domain}/contact?action={MyActionName}&controller={MyControllerName}

Because I have a route for '/contact' else ware in my app these ajax requests are retrieving the html for that page instead of the expected json for the grid.

The demos don't seem to behave this way in terms of what url they use for retrieving their json data from the application. Instead of using the 'contact' url segment and querystring parameters for action and controller they seem to produce the more expected:

http://{domain}/{application name probably}/{ControllerName/{ActionName}

My question is: How can I get the MVC Grid to NOT use the '/contact' url segment with controller and action as querystring parameter as it's route configuration, generating full querystring parameterless urls with the controller and action name in the path, thus avoiding my routing conflict.
