By using this code you can hide as many items as you want

var boxArray = ["first element's id","second element's id","nth element's id"];
   window.addEventListener('mouseup', function(event){
   for(var i=0; i < boxArray.length; i++){
    var box = document.getElementById(boxArray[i]);
    if(event.target != box && event.target.parentNode != box){
        box.style.display = 'none';
    }
   }
})
