Unfortunately, CFTREE won't be able to do this. The way that CFTREE works is
that CF writes the data used by the tree to the page as a parameter to the
Java applet which gets instantiated on the client.
What you need is an applet that can receive data from somewhere other than
the page which creates it. If, for example, you find a tree that's
scriptable using JavaScript, you could build an interface which receives
chunks of data using a hidden frame or MS Remote Scripting, and passes those
chunks of data to the tree using JavaScript. Or, you could just build your
own using DHTML or modify existing DHTML tree scripts.
