Hello,

is it possible that a  very lightweight "fully compliant" browser will be
compiled for the latest tinycore.

For example,  "QtWeb"
or                  "surf"
or                   "dwb"

since i see that currently only heavy browsers like FF exist.

Fifth is not flash complaint is it.

thanks

Curiously looked it up.
Total install size for epiphany.tcz is 60 MB vs 56 MB for firefox-official.tcz.

Not necessarily a bad thing. If you didn't know streaming youtube works with vlc2.tcz, although another heavy application.

I think on dcore the browser you are looking for are available

In addition to dCore you could try the unofficial script from aswjh: http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,18237.0.html. Recommend having the script point to Jessie or Wheezy instead of Sid. Allowed me to easily build a couple extensions in TC 6 that i never would have had the skills or patience to complete myself.

Also, just got QtWeb running in TC 6.4 with very little effort - took <5 minutes. Loaded a personal extension of SMPlayer for QT dependencies, downloaded QtWeb binary from http://www.qtweb.net/download.php, make exeucutable, run and enjoy. If you need to see the SMPlayer .dep list let me know. Not sure about the other browsers you listed, this one i wanted to test drive :)
