p5.js-web-editor phantom files after renaming or deleting

p5.js version

v1.11.1 October 31, 2024

What is your operating system?

Mac OS

Web browser and version

chrome 131.0.6778.205

Actual Behavior

i have implemented a minimal version of a WebWorker. Only a postMessage from main and one back from worker.js. after editing the existing worker.js file the message send back was the same even tho it was saved. When completely renaming the file to worker2.js (and changing it in the main and index file) it worked like expected but i even could still read the data of worker.js even after deletion by changing the references back to worker.js.

Expected Behavior

clear

Steps to reproduce

sketch.js:

let testfileText = "";

function preload() {
  // Load the contents of worker.js as text
  testfileText = loadStrings('testfile.js');
}

function setup() {
  console.log(testfileText.join("\n"));
}

testfile.js :

//testfile

index.html:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/p5.js/1.11.1/p5.js"></script>
    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/p5.js/1.11.1/addons/p5.sound.min.js"></script>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
    <meta charset="utf-8" />

  </head>
  <body>
    <main>
    </main>
    <script src="testfile.js"></script>
    <script src="sketch.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>

Saving Everything in editor changing testfile to:

//testfile new

after saving it still logs "//testfile" instead of "//testfile new" in console

I already tried: resaving everything refreshing website using absolute paths deleting file deleting chrome cache

Can you show what you are facing as because It works fine for me everywhere. Also you sample code gives "ReadableStream Error". Did you mean to use "testfile.txt" instead of "testfile.js"

@SomeStein I changed the testfile.js as you said, but here it works fine ig.

After this I changed testfile.js and it worked.

Is this what you were facing issue? or something else?
