I'm not sure there is any but if you

open a TS file browse UI and right-click and hit PROPERTIES, it's pretty intuitive:

file
/iw-cc/command/iw.formspub.browse_for_link?

arguments
vpath
ceiling
hier%5fcallback (javascript function or statement to call upon selection)
show%5fthumbnail (true|false)
filename%5ffilter%5fregex (this is the nicest part of all)

I've had to work with this quite a bit and it's nice because 95% of the work is already done for you! If you need to browse outside of the current branch, however, it requires a bit more work.

Thanks for the response,but i m not too sure about the TS browse UI,how can i use it.If a use simple html on the job initalization screen it opens a windows file selection menu.But i want to browse files from the server itself.
so one way i could think of was to use existing cgi's.There are a lot of them located in the iw_bin

Right, so that's basically what you can do. Inject some HTML into the instantiation screen that will feign the browse button (or, if you'd rather it look differently from a standard browse button, do that). Create an onClick event on that button to spawn a new window which invokes the file browse script, with correct parameters in the query string, etc.
