I noticed that the code to cleanup the doubled rel="lightbox[]" attributes had a nasty couple of changes to it that I forgot to remove after testing. As a result it was removing the href from the link in manually added lightbox attributes and was breaking lightbox completely. See the one line change log and download links after the jump.

I just discovered this lovely bug this morning. Basically the regular expressions do some wierdness to links that remove the href from them and cause the xmlHTTPRequest to go into an infinite loop. I have a strong idea of where the problem is and hopefully will issue a fix soon. My apologies to anyone encountering this problem.
