I have a requirement to link the whole div to a certain url. Within the div is content and in the content there needs to be a link. What's the best way to do this? So lets say I have the following code:

<div class="pet_container" onClick="window.location.href='some.html'">
<div class="pet_bullets_text">
<ul>
<li id="links">Retailer locator on <a href="http://www.somewebsite.com" target="_blank"><u>somewebsite.com</u></a> brings customers into your store</li>
</ul>                       
</div>

I guess this works. Because, the click event when it is fired on the `` tag, it has more priority. – Praveen Kumar Purushothaman Jun 13 '13 at 17:11

It's unclear to me what you want. How does the code above NOT do what you want? – Pete Jun 13 '13 at 17:13
The "best" way is subjective. What you have is fine. – Precastic Jun 13 '13 at 17:17
If I click on my href in the
tag the onClick event fires too, I don't want that to happen. How do I control/separate these? Sorry for not being more clear on this.

I found my solution after more in-depth researching on this site: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3979257/execute-href-of-an-anchor-but-not-onclick-of-underlying-div?lq=1 – Don9of11 Jun 14 '13 at 18:39
