Description:
Hi, 

I was studying reference manual "Spatial Extensions in MySQL". I think I found a mistake on chapter "18.4.2.2. Creating Geometry Values Using WKB Functions" (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/gis-wkb-functions.html) in two function definitions: 

GeomCollFromWKB(wkb[,srid]) , GeometryCollectionFromWKB(wkt[,srid])
and
GeomFromWKB(wkb[,srid]) , GeometryFromWKB(wkt[,srid])

Full name functions accepts different format of geometry type(wkt) as first argument than their shorter versions(wkb). I supose that someone was copying definitions from earlier chapter and forgot about changing argument "wkt" to "wkb"

How to repeat:
browse to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/gis-wkb-functions.html  ;)

Suggested fix:
Simply change "wkt" to "wkb" in:
GeometryCollectionFromWKB(wkt[,srid])
GeometryFromWKB(wkt[,srid])

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been addressed in the
documentation. The updated documentation will appear on our website
shortly, and will be included in the next release of the relevant
product(s).
