Answer 1

It looks like ThickBox is intended to be used in conjunction with jQuery. Smoothbox, however, is a port to MooTools. I suggest you add the Smoothbox files to your project and look over the demo code.

Answer 2

Joomla has Squeezebox built in, and you can use it to show an iFrame with any HTML you want. Squeezebox uses MooTools which is also built into Joomla. JQuery works with Joomla but sometimes can cause conflicts. See [here] for Squeezebox guidance.
