    I believe that putting this into your .htaccess will do that for you(.htaccess in /en_us/ folder).

    DirectoryIndex filename.js
    Code (markup):
    I don't know much about this but that is what a google search brought up.

    You'll probably want to leave index.html and index.php in there just in case there are subdirectories on your server that have them...so just add the .js file to your directory index:

    
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm filename.js
    Code (markup):
    Well..now that I reread the post...use the above if you're adding it to httpd.conf (site-wide), otherwise, the addition to .htaccess in that particular directory should do the trick.
