Something like,
<c:choose>
<c:when test="${currentUser=='Acti
<a href=#>Logout</a>
</c:when>
<c:otherwise>
<a href=#>Login</a>
</c:otherwise>
</c:choose>
Where, currentUser is a status flag or a simple variable
I would still ask an opinion from other experts, coz I am also a rookie :-)

Hi,
Once you verify the username and password of a user then redirect the user to another page which is similar but instead of login the same button is used as logout. This techniaue will also help you in sloving back button problem for post method used in form. During login set the session variables and this sesion needs to be invalidated once the user logsout.
