title: Can you set a default value for an argument in a remote CFC function?
body: <p>The ColdFusion 8 documentation states the following about the "required" attribute of CFARGUMENT:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>"All arguments are required when invoked as a web service, irrespective of how they are defined."</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>However, I don't want ColdFusion to throw an exception when an argument is missing from the request. I want to handle it myself as part of the request. So, can I set a default value for the required argument?</p>
