I want to disable click on a certain <div> so that when you select the text on it, the text doesn’t select.

I tried writing onclick="return false;" like in this fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/mageek/X6hqD/ but it doesn’t work.

How can it work? (My goal isn’t just disabling the select, it’s the whole click).
