I have a big div, and a small button inside the div.

When the div is clicked, I want it to do something.
When the button is clicked, I want it to do something else.

$('#myDiv').click(OnDivClicked);
$('#myButton').click(OnButtonClicked);

Currently when the button is clicked, both OnDivClicked and OnButtonClicked are fired.

How do you prevent OnDivClicked getting fired when the button is clicked?

Thanks in advance.
