So, you want to fix typos?

Hi,

while I was searching for a description for some functions in the
html-documentation I found some broken links (these two fixes). So they
aren't only comments because they are used to produce the links in the
documentation ;-).

But if I have some time I'd like to fix some typos.
Thanks for the nice description.

Cheers
Rico
