You should be able to clear Firefox cache selectively by going to history,
giving a search pattern matching your web and deleting the individual items.

If you are deleting a lot or history items it might take a minute or more.

Other than that, you could limit web page validity time before it needs
refresh. That could of course generate unnecessary traffic on static page.
