Was creating New Project from existing files, but in middle of process realized I wanted to convert the index.html file to index.php, so I did while the New Project wizard was still open. Then, when I used the Index File: "Browse..." button, it did see the new index.php file, and there is no apparent way to get it to re-read the file system. The Browse... button needs to do a refresh (i.e. re-read the directory) or there needs to be a Refresh button or a Refresh menuitem, or both.
Hi developer person, There's a typo in my description of the problem in the 2nd sentence. It reads: "...it did see the new index.php file,..." it SHOULD read: "...it didn't see the new index.php file,..." In other words, the file list didn't update to show the change from 'index.html' to 'index.php' [in case there was any confusion ;]
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue. Thanks for your cooperation, NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Boss
