help with a mySQLi recordset

Hello there, I have a MySQLi recordset that takes in 2 URL parameters:

php:
?Department=&Category=



And I have a dropdown menu, so for example the Menu item 'Living' would be department and it would contain many categories. So that all works fine...however lets say on my homepage I have a info-graphic link for 'Living' so if the user clicks on that it will take them to the page that will display ALL categories items. How can i do this?

The example URL would be:

php:
category.php?Department=Living&Category=Occasional-Chairs



But lets say I have an infor-graphic link that directs to:

php:
category.php?Department=Living



My recordset is:

php:
<?php

if(true){
    
    switch(isset(
$_GET['Department'])?$_GET['Department']:""){
        
        case 
"New-Arrivals":
            
$rsProducts = new WA_MySQLi_RS("rsProducts",$ecartdb,0);
            
$rsProducts->setQuery("SELECT * FROM products WHERE ProductNewArrival = 1");
            
$rsProducts->execute();
        break;
        
        case 
"Best-Sellers":
            
$rsProducts = new WA_MySQLi_RS("rsProducts",$ecartdb,0);
            
$rsProducts->setQuery("SELECT * FROM products WHERE ProductBestSeller = 1");
            
$rsProducts->execute();
        break;
        
        case 
"InStore-Now":
            
$rsProducts = new WA_MySQLi_RS("rsProducts",$ecartdb,0);
            
$rsProducts->setQuery("SELECT * FROM products WHERE ProductInStoreNow = 1");
            
$rsProducts->execute();
        break;
        
        case 
"Search":
            
$rsProducts = new WA_MySQLi_RS("rsProducts",$ecartdb,0);
            
$rsProducts->setQuery("SELECT * FROM products");
            
            if (isset(
$_GET["Price"])) {
                
$prices explode(":",$_GET["Price"]);
                
$rsProducts->addFilter("ProductPrice",">=","d",$prices[0]);
                
$rsProducts->addFilter("ProductPrice","<=","d",$prices[1]);
            }
            
            
$productTypes = array();
            
                if (isset(
$_GET["Wood"])) {
                    
$productTypes[] = "Wood";
                }
                if (isset(
$_GET["Metal"])) {
                    
$productTypes[] = "Metal";
                }
                if (isset(
$_GET["Glass"])) {
                    
$productTypes[] = "Glass";
                }
                if (
sizeof($productTypes) > 0$rsProducts->addFilter("ProductType","=","s",$productTypes);
                if (isset(
$_GET["Product"])) {
                    
$productName $_GET["Product"];
                    
$splitName explode(" ",$productName);
                    for (
$x=0$x<sizeof($splitName); $x++) {
                        
$splitName[$x] = "%" $splitName[$x]."%";
                    }
                    
$rsProducts->addFilter("ProductKeywords","LIKE","s",$splitName);
                }
            
$rsProducts->setFilter();
            
$rsProducts->execute();
        break;
            
        default:
            
$rsProducts = new WA_MySQLi_RS("rsProducts",$ecartdb,0);
            
$rsProducts->setQuery("SELECT products.*, categories.* FROM products INNER JOIN categories ON products.ProductCategoryID = categories.CategoryID WHERE categories.CategoryLink = ? AND categories.CategoryLocation = ?");
            
$rsProducts->bindParam("s""".(isset($_GET['Category'])?$_GET['Category']:"")  ."""-1"); //WAQB_Param1
            
$rsProducts->bindParam("s""".(isset($_GET['Department'])?$_GET['Department']:"")  ."""-1"); //WAQB_Param2
            
$rsProducts->execute();
        break;
    }
}
?>
