Answer 1

You should name functions with a lower case initial letter, unless they are intended as constructors. If they are intended as constructors, you should be calling them with new.

Answer 2

Tick Tolerate uncapitalized constructors or rename to resizeGrid(); to prevent lint from assuming its a function constructor (although calling an undefined var like that will raise other errors).
