live.js sending consecutive HEAD requests to the server and if there is a change in the html, css or js file, live.js refreshing the data.
It's very simple Just link the file to the html file
<script type="text/javascript" src="live.js">
It works well if the files on a server but if I'm working on a local computer with notepad It does not work.
Does anyone know why and how to fix it?
In general, live.js does not support the file protocol. However, there is a very easy work-around (suggested by @MarcelValdezOrozco in a comment to this answer):
If you have Python installed, you can start a local webserver simply by running
$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer
Run it in the same directory as your HTML file. By default, the server will list the content of the directory. Navigate to your HTML. Now auto-reloading using live.js should work.
