Yes, because there is a space in the word you want to submit over the URL.
What you would need to do is:
$subcategory = urlencode($subcategory);
<a href='addupdate.php?category=$category&subcategory=$subcategory
By this way the space is converted to the equivalent ascii-char -> %20 and
then it should not get cut of anymore.
