Ok, so I have a dropdown login box, which uses this code for dropdown:

$('#header #login > a').click(function(){
    if($('#header #login').hasClass('open')){
        $('#header #login').removeClass('open');
    }
    else{
        $('#header #login').addClass('open');
    }
    return false;
});
$('#header #login').click(function(){
    return false;
});
$(document).click(function(){
    $('#header #login').removeClass('open');
});

The only problem is that the return false is breaking the checkbox that I’ve added to the login box…
Anybody know how to fix this?

EDIT: Ok, so the correct way to do this is:

$('#header #login > a').click(function(e){
    if($('#header #login').hasClass('open')){
        $('#header #login').removeClass('open');
    }
    else{
        $('#header #login').addClass('open');
    }
    e.preventDefault();
});
$('#header #login').click(function(e){
    e.stopPropagation();
});
$(document).click(function(){
    $('#header #login').removeClass('open');
});
