I think this may do the job for you. I use it myself.

You can get the nested folders using AJAX, so u do not need to get the
entire dir structure in one go.

Subject: Re: file/directory chooser

The problem is, I actually wrote a expand/collapsible version which would
work. I wanted a directory chooser, so I wrote one which works, but is abit
raw looking. I wanted to have better user experience, so instead of
"on-demand-drillingdown", I first go get the whole hierarchy, and build
nested layers, so when user expands a directory, he wouldn't have to again
do a <cfdirectory>listing. 

Hope I am making sense. Basically I get the whole structure first and build
div layers nestedly.

However, the issue is, the folder I have to display is a network folder (two
different locations - different cities). and it times out at this.
which made me look for some other alternatives.

A bigger issue is loominglarge, I have to do the same thing for another
shared folder, which is on a unix server ( my server is on windows machine).
Now I don't know how it would work. 

WOuld a simple mapped drive work??

Thanks a lot for all your time
