Do you want multiple drop downs / select fields to drill down to the product?
If so check out these two links:

It looks like you are headed in the right direction. First, I'd like to say a big bravo for using cfsqlparam. Now, to the advice.
First, always scope url.category when referring to what you are passing in on the command line.
So, if we want to display links to the subcategories, I would probably do something like this:
<cfoutput query="rs_subcategory">
<a href="dynamic.cfm?category=#urlencodedformat(url.category)#&subcategory=#urlencodedformat(subcategory)#">
#htmleditfomrat(rs_category.subcategory)#
</a>
<br />
</cfoutput>
Now, you need to do the lookup in the db for products based on url.category and url.subcategory, just as you did looking up the subcategories based on category.
If you need additional assistance, please clarify what you need help with, as your question is pretty broad.
