Introduction

Simply download two asp files and place them in any IIS directory. By default, the starting directory is C:\Inetpub. When you execute the index.asp in browser you can see all files and folders from your C:\Inetpub, listed in a neat format. You very well can browse through the entire file system. You can also change the location by just modifying the method, buildTree(). Modify the line, appendThings("C:\\InetPUB\\", 0);

Download

You can download the code. Unfortunately there is no live demo of this code for security reasons. This zip file contains two ASP pages and a image folder, which contains some images. If you want to work with the index.asp, then you need to have all these images. FSOBrowser.zip

Haven't downloaded the code yet, but you would want to do something like this, after getting the selected fileName:
Response.Clear();
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition",
"attachment; filename=" + fileName);
Response.AddHeader("Content-Length",
file.Length.ToString());
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";
Response.WriteFile(fileName);
Response.End();

Hello,
Great script!! One small request though, can it be modified so that whenever it finds a file you can click on the file to open it or right click it to save it? I am attempting to use this for browsing a directory of pictures.
