2. allow embedded html and custom its position
3. can custom style for the 'forward' and 'back' buttons, their images and positions
4. have a 'play' button for image slideshow or allow custom JavaScript to do so

Answer 1

I know that Fancybox at least does 1. and 3., but I suppose you would have to hack the script a bit for 2. and 4. (but I think it's quite easy to modify). Working example at http://pocketcas.com/iphone/.

Answer 2

I think Thickbox fits your needs: http://jquery.com/demo/thickbox/

You can see #1 and #2 in action on this page (click on a video thumbnail), and #3 can be accomplished by editing the CSS.

I'm not sure what you mean in #4. Do you want it to play a slideshow? or a movie?

Answer 3

Answer 4

I like using Colorbox at the moment. I find it very customizable and it allows everything you want, plus more.
