There is, but it's well hidden. You have to edit the USER.JS file,
which is located in your Mozilla profile folder. For example, mine is
in:
"C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application
Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\zhmp5zkk.default\"
If you can't find any such file, you will have to create it in the
appropriate place. Read this page for more info:

Close down any open Firefox windows before you begin. Open or create
your USER.JS file in a text editor, and add the following line:
user_pref("browser.cache.check_doc_frequency", 1);
Save the USER.JS file and quit. Next time you load up Firefox, it
will be set to refresh on every visit. There are many other nifty
modifications you can make with the USER.JS file; just check out the
following page and create the browser you always dreamed of:

If the above seems far too much like hard work, there is also an
extension available called "ReloadEvery" which will refresh pages
every x seconds:
