Details about the bug:

When using p5.js with safari, I either don't get error messages or get "script error. (:line 0)".
I went through similar issues and tried their solutions, but nothing has worked. The console isn't completely unresponsive ( if I use console.log() and console.error() messages still show up), but actual error messages aren't working. This issue only happens in safari, I tried it in Firefox and error messages do show up properly there. This started happening when I got a new computer, on my old computer everything worked fine. Here are some pictures of the issue on a blank sketch, but it is happening on all my projects.

in Safari:

in Firefox:

thanks for reporting! i am able to reproduce. it seems lie on Safari, the hook that's in there to catch errors/console messages isn't working!

I think the issue here is the iframe having no origin and therefore the script errors being cross origin (see What is "Script error").

Thinking that this may be fixed by #166 as I am working on this currently.

Tried this out in Safari 14.1.2 today and it appears to be fixed. Closing!
