If the tree is just a list internally, you might be able to use this:

Hi, I've been looking for a tree widget which can be filtered or searched by typing keyword in a textbox. When trees have thousands of nodes, its very difficult for users to browse manually. Has anyone ever seen such a widget (jquery based ideally but other will do as well). I am surprised to find that none of the available plugins support this feature! Thanks
