I want to edit the parent category link, at the moment it doesn't do anything except display the dropdown menu, anyone know how to edit this?
Just a Hint, the code you are interested in (navigation bar of the categories) is written at the same files of the header:
<OC_ROOT>/catalog/view/theme/<Your_Theme_Folder>/template/common/header.tpl
<?php foreach ($categories as $category) { ?>
<?php if ($category['children']) { // here } ?>
Give it a try and I'll be here if you still have a problem
