Making image clickable inside a clickable div - hyperlinked

How can I get an image to have it's own hyperlink that is inside of a clickable div?

<div id="clickable" onclick="window.open('http://www.daniweb.com');return false;">

  <p>I love clickable images!</p>
    <a href="http://www.google.com"><img src="someimage.png" /></a>
  <p>too bad they don't click in a clickable div</p>

</div>

If I try the above then the DIV is always getting the click, never the image in the div. I can click the image, but the link for the div is what opens. Removing the return false does not help either.

I thought I tried that one, but initial tests seem to be that it works.

Thanks!
