Answer 1

I haven't used slimbox but if it supports iframe then you should be able to do anything within the box as you can on a regular page.

Answer 2

Slimbox is only for image content. See the FAQ. You'll need to make some changes for it to work with an ASPX page.

Quoting from the FAQ:

Is Slimbox able to display Flash content (like videos), iFrames or other content?

No, Slimbox has been designed from the ground up to display images only, to be simple and to have the smallest code. However, some people have created Slimbox derivatives that implement these features. Because it's open source, you are free to modify the code to fit your needs, as long as you respect the terms of the licence and keep the credits.

Answer 3

I don't think SlimBox supports that. There are plenty of other ways to do it. For example using FaceBox: http://famspam.com/facebox
