Prevent parent container click event from firing when hyperlink clicked

Question

On my web page I have a list of files.

Each file is in it\'s own container div (div class=\"file\"). Inside the container is a link to the file and a description.

Thanks for the help.

I was using jQuery but it's good to know a non-framework solution.

Added the following for the links:

$(".flink").click(function(e) {
    e.stopPropagation();
});
