Mark:

Actually, there IS an option; it's just not accessible through the
normal "Options" menu.  To change the cache behavior:

Type "about:config" into Firefox's url bar.  A long list of preferences
will appear.

Find the "browser.cache.check_doc_frequency" line (the easiest way is to
type "frequency" in the "Filter" box above the list of preferences).

Permissible values for "browser.cache.check_doc_frequency" are:

   0: Check for a new version of a page once per session
   1: Check every time a page is loaded
   2: Check only if the page isn't already cached
   3: Check when the page is out of date

"3" is the default.  For the behavior you desire, double-click on the
"browser.cache.check_doc_frequency" line and set its value to "1".
