I'm not a HTML / Javascript expert, but I've heard from them that how JS events get propagated in the DOM hierarchy can be tricky and vary from browser to browser. After trying to circumvent this requirement ;), I would try putting everything on the page in one big div, except for the popup menu that would be outside the úber-div in HTML and positioned over it with absolute positioning or something. This way maybe the menu would get its own clicks because of its higher z-index, and the úber-div would get all the other clicks. But the latter part might depend on how much luck you have with the event propagation and where the users happen to click exactly...
