Accordion Tab without Submenu

Question

Hello,
my Problem:
I need a menu with and without submenu.
Exapmle: (just a example)
Button "Home" without submenu, but "company" there are 2 submenus: "about" and "where to buy"
Now i make a new accordion menu and the first ("Home") button have to without submenu, but how?
When i delete at the one panel <div class="AccordionPanelContent"> and link the text in <div class="AccordionPanelTab2"> to an other site, the link is not working and the other open submenu is not closing.
Here a example which is not working:
<div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion" tabindex="0">
        <div class="AccordionPanel">
          <div class="AccordionPanelTab2"><a href="main.html" target="main">Home</a></div>
        </div>
        <div class="AccordionPanel">
          <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Page 1</div>
          <div class="AccordionPanelContent"><a href="menu.html" target="main">Content 1</a></div>
        </div>
        <div class="AccordionPanel">
          <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Page 2</div>
          <div class="AccordionPanelContent">
          Content 2<br />
          Content 2.1
          </div>
        </div>
        <div class="AccordionPanel">
          <div class="AccordionPanelTab2"><a href="main.html" target="main">Page 3</a></div>
        </div>
        <div class="AccordionPanel">
          <div class="AccordionPanelTab">Page 4</div>
          <div class="AccordionPanelContent">Content 4</div>
        </div>
      </div>
I want that when i click on the "Home" button the link site will open and the open submenu(s) get closed. an the same when i klick on "Page 3"
The link "Page 3" works perfectly.
The link in this example is not interest, just a sample.
I hope someone crack it.

Answer 1

You are right.
If i add one of those the panels don´t close.
When i click on a "normal" panel (with submenu) it add up, when i click it again it will close.
But not when i click for example at this (panel without submenu):
<div class="AccordionPanelTab"><a href="main.html" onclick="window.main.location = this.href; AccordionPanel.showPanel( -1 );
">News</a></div>
I think the answer is in the JS Script, so here it is:
