I tried this:

    $("#form_container").click(function(event) {
        event.stopPropagation();
        $("#id_content").trigger('click');
    });

AND This:

    $("#form_container").bind("click", function(event){
        event.stopPropagation();
        $("#id_content").trigger('click');
    });

But receive the same recursion error.
