Issue description

I was trying to use live-server on a barebones html file for quick prototyping, and didn't use any of the doctype/html/head/body boilerplate elements, as html5 automatically inserts them in the DOM if not present. After I added a <head>, live-reloading was working fine. I couldn't find this documented anywhere, and I only got it thanks to #242 (comment)

I don't think this should be documented, but rather if it doesn't find a tag, it should just put the script at the top of the file, if the extension is html

Software details

  • Command line used for launching live-server:
  • OS: Linux
  • Browser (if browser related):
  • Node.js version: 10.5.0
  • live-server version: 1.2.1

I'm taking a shot at making a pull request that should solve this issue. Currently, there's a pull request out there, #289, but it seems like it injects the <script> tag inside the last tag available instead of prepending or appending it to the document.

Actually, looks like this project hasn't been updated in over a year. I'd consider this project dead now.
