How do I make Firefox auto-refresh on file change?

Live.js

From the website:

How?
Just include Live.js and it will monitor the current page including local CSS and Javascript by sending consecutive HEAD requests to the server. Changes to CSS will be applied dynamically and HTML or Javascript changes will reload the page. Try it!

Where?
Live.js works in Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera and IE6+ until proven otherwise. Live.js is independent of the development framework or language you use, whether it be Ruby, Handcraft, Python, Django, NET, Java, Php, Drupal, Joomla or what-have-you.

It has the huge benefit of working with IETester, dynamically refreshing each open IE tab.

Try it out by adding the following to your <head>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://livejs.com/live.js"></script>
