Was running a JavaScript challenge, and now is Safari looked to that prompt which I can't access. Any idea?

My JS prompt which is asking a question has made my Safari completely looked. It won't accept any answer and just keeps appearing, and I can't access any other command in Safari. When I shut Safari down through the terminal, and reopen it, the prompt reappears and the issue is still there. Anyone got any idea of what to do?

I know you're most definitely done with this issue by now, seeing as it's been 25 days. But if any other users stumble across this and are struggling with it I figured this could help. First I would try clearing the browser history/cache/cookies by manually deleting it in the web browser's directory. You can Google where that is or use an application called CCleaner which I have found very helpful, or another similar app. After this the issue should be resolved. No idea what would have caused that though.

Thank you Maxwell. Yes I managed to resolve the issue after an hour or so. Clearing the cash did not resolve the issue, but some other tweaking got it done.
