Aaah, :) That's a different kettle of fish. You'll want to look at the
event's "target" member.
If we use your "pseudo-HTML" and this code:
$(".selectable").click( function(e) {
alert( e.target.nodeName.toLowerCase() );
});
If you click the image it should alert 'img'.
Note that if you click one of the "raw" text nodes inside the
.selectable the target will be the .selectable.
