HTML file
- To change the number of seats or the layout of the seats open the .html in any text editor and move the DOM elements around. It is self explanatory once you see the structure of the file.
- If you want to change the functionality of the buttons or the color of filled seats edit seatgen.js. For changing color of filled seats simply change the value of seat.style.backgroundColor in line 3.
- To change the size of seats or the visual gap between the seats edit style.css and edit the .seat class. It also has a self explanatory structure, all of the design css that is not required for seats was loaded from a separate file which makes editing this file much easier.
Note
Open index.html in Firefox only! Chrome and Safari DO NOT SUPPORT cross origin requests for local files in javascript. This means that they do not have the rights to access local files, this means you have to click load file and select the output file however this functionality is disabled since it added another step.
