Default Cannot open a saved web page!

Using Debian Etch
GNOME Web Browser 2.14.3 Epiphany

This page is giving me troubles :
http://www.kamaradski.nl/josje/modul... light=schema

I don't understand the difference between Firefox and Epiphany.
Where do I find Firefox, maybe that gives me some advantages
in several video streams too.
In synaptic I only find translations and whatnot but no
webbrowser called Firefox.

Iceweasel is FireFox re-branded.

The way I always use/install Firefox, is by downloading the latest from
Mozilla,

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

this way I always have the latest, and as soon as it is released. I
always install(just extract the contents of the .tar.gz) mine to /usr/
local/firefox, then just make a shortcut/launcher pointing to /usr/local/
firefox/firefox, make it the default browser, and away I go. When a new
version is released I just delete the folder /usr/local/firefox, and
extract the new one, and continue on. I also add -profilemanager to the
command line, eg

/usr/local/firefox/firefox -profilemanager

and create a new profile, so as it doesn't mess up/have any problems with
profiles made by certain distro's default firefox install, or in Debian's
case, Iceweasel, and just select the new profile at browser star up.

iceweasel and firefox are the same program with different branding -
Debian cannot use the firefox branding for various reasons.
