OK, the jslint 1 and 2 warnings can be avoided with

/* global, window, alert */

Is this proper for jslint only?

I put each declaration in a different line, since that is considered 
proper by jslint...

With a little addition, I now think it should work on any screen, but I 
would like to have confirmation on this:

And something else: there are some variables that are used in only 1 
function (moveAround()). Since, however, this function is used 
repeatedly to move the ball, I opted to make these variables global 
instead of local, so they don't have to be declared repeatedly and slow 
down the execution. I would appreciate some comment on this too.

I hope this post is more specific than my first one and will elicit some 
answer...
