Question

I have a div container which class is popup and when i click on it, it wont close which is what i want it to do

but inside i also have some anchor tags for some ajax requests which doesn’t execute since i have return false on the parent container

$(".popup").click(function(e){
   return false;
});

how can i make the ajax requests work and still keep the popup visible?

Not so clear with you question, but do you mean something like this:

$(".popup").click(function(e) {
    alert("Parent");
    e.preventDEfault();
});
$("#test").click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    e.stopPropagation();
    alert("Clicked"); //run ajax request
});
