jquery ui accordion need different actions for link vs. icon

jquery ui accordion need different actions for link vs. icon

I'm trying to use JQuery UI Accordion for a multi-level menu, like a Superfish menu, but with vertical accordion presentation instead. For example:

- Home
- Products
  - - product category 1
  - - product category 2

The 'main menu' level items are linked to the corresponding page, so in this example, 'products' is linked to the 'products' page. In the accordion menu, if you click the '+' to open the 'products' menu, the 'products' link is activated and you are taken to the 'products' page.

This seems wrong to me. The '+' should open the menu, but not activate the link. A user should have to click on the 'products' link itself to activate it.

Is there a configuration option or jQuery function I can use to trigger different actions for the link and the '+'?

Thanks for helping.
