Wrong command line on web page?

Hi folks,

I just tried to install the iceweasel releases you provided and to me it 
looks like the command line for apt-get install ... iceweasel is not 
correctly generated.
It reads "apt-get install -t squeeze-backports iceweasel" for release as 
well as esr but the correct command line would be "apt-get install -t 
iceweasel-release iceweasel" and "... -t iceweasel-esr ..." resp.

The same applies to Wheezy, where it always reads "-t experimental" 
while it should be "-t iceweasel-(release|esr)".

I think it would also be very helpful if you'd specify somewhere to 
which versions of iceweasel the version codenames 'release' and 'esr' 
actually refer to. Not everyone interested in a recent browser is that 
familar with Mozillas release and versioning policy.

Anyhow many thanks for this helpful service!

Cheers,
	Christopher
