This is very simple. Use this code:

$("#DIV_ID").click(function(e){
   e.preventDefault();
   e.stopPropagation()
});

There probably is no default action performed by the div .. you may want to use stopImmediatePropagation instead or even unbind whatever event is bound to it.

@ExplosionPills I am not sure about stopImmediatePropagation. Can you explain difference b/w stopImmediatePropagation and stopPropagation?

It prevents the calling of other events bound to the same element. stopPropagation only stops the calling of events bound to ancestors.

use stopImmediatePropagation()...

Keeps the rest of the handlers from being executed and prevents the event from bubbling up the DOM tree.

try this

$("#yourDivId").click(function(e){
   e.preventDefault();
   e.stopImmediatePropagation();
});
