How to reload automatically with html and css
I am using firefox to code with html and css. I want to be able to load the pages into a web browser automatically. I have tried LiveReload but it does not work. Is there functionality in Firefox that will allow me to do this. Currently I am coding everything in Brackets and when I want to use firefox i have to then copy it all into ff - which seems very dysfunctional as Firefox is supposed to be used for web development. Is there something I am not seeing or cannot find when I google?

Hi GayleH, I have not used Brackets myself (I assume you mean this: http://brackets.io/).
One of the features mentioned on their site is "Live Preview" -- "Get a real-time connection to your browser. Make changes to CSS and HTML and you'll instantly see those changes on screen." So... it's in there somewhere, unless it's not working.
What I want to do is not use brackets at all - I want to be able to code in html and css in firefox and then see a live preview in the browser window - but I cannot see any functionality in Firefox that allows this - is there something Firefox offers to do this?
Firefox has a "Scratchpad" tool for editing code, but otherwise no, it is mostly a viewer and not an editor.
I'm locking this question because a second thread that covers a similar subject has been created. Please continue here:

The Scratchpad uses CodeMirror: http://codemirror.net/
