If you use the Microsoft ServiceLocator, you can apply the service locator design pattern and ask the container for the service.

In your case it would look something like this:

public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page, IPostEditView {

    PostEditController controller;
    public _Default()
    {
         var service = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance();
         this.controller = new PostEditController(this, service);
    }
}

ServiceLocator has implementations for Castle Windsor and StructureMap. Not sure about Ninject, but it's trivial to create a ServiceLocator adapter for a new IoC.
