You could have a DTML Method in a top level directory that
takes care of the
listing of Files. Something like (called show_files):

<!--#in "objectValues(['File'])"-->
<!--#var id-->
<!--#/in-->

then your selection DTML Method can be:

<!--#in "objectValues(['Folder'])"-->
<IMG SRC="<!--#var icon-->"> <A
HREF="<!--# var id -->/show_files"><!--#var
title--></A><BR>
<!--#/in-->

I believe it should work
