How do I disable a single link in superfish

Hi
I have a superfish menu with some parent and child sub menus and I'm looking to disable the link wherever there is a parent so that only the child links are active - removing the link from the parent stops the superfish menu working. Any help appreciated.
thanks

<!-- start menu -->
    <ul class="sf-menu">
        	
            <li><a href="about_us.html">About Us</a></li>
            <li><a href="blog.html">Blog</a>
                    <ul>
                            <li><a href="-i-30.html">Web design</a></li>
                            <li><a href="-i-30.html">Web design</a></li>
                    </ul>
            </li>
           
            <li><a href="contacts.html">Contacts</a></li>
      </ul><!-- end menu -->

thanks - unfortunately the drop down buttons no longer function and don't appear on an ipad - part of the problem is you often have to click a mouseover button on an ipad and second I want to stop access to the parent cat for tother sites using this menu on pcs - if helps the test site is -

http://www.nickruskin.com/portfolio/home.php

the other pages all have another superfish menu which is driven by a php array but it has the same basic problem - also it causes issues with validation so I'm trying to get this simpler one to work

thanks Nick
thanks - solution worked but not as planned - ipad problem down to something else but menu works fine on 2 test sites - other issue with disabling parent isn't important

thanks for help
