Help needed for Form Validation please help!

I have created a page which has login as well as Signup fields. I validated the login part by using jsp as it has to go through the database for checking for incorrect Username/password combination . Problem arises while validating the Sign up part as after clicking the submit button for sign up it also goes through the jsp code and returns incorrect Username/password combination. So how can I make the jsp code confined to the login submit button.

<html><form name=f1 method=POST action=log.jsp>

<body background="img.jpg">
<div align="right"><b><font size=4 color=#651A0A>
Username � <input type=text name=username>� 
Password � 
<input type=password name=password>� 
</font>� � 
<script type="text/javascript">
function validateForm()
{
var x=document.forms["f2"]["fname"].value;
if (x==null || x=="")
  {
  alert("First name must be filled out");
  return false;
  }

}</script>

1)login.jsp:

<html>
<script>
function validate(){
var username=document.form.user.value;
var password=document.form.pass.value;
if(username==""){
 alert("Enter Username!");
  return false;
}
if(password==""){
 alert("Enter Password!");
  return false;
}
return true;
}
</script>
<form name="form" method="post" action="check.jsp" onsubmit="javascript:return validate();">
<table>
<tr><td>Username:</td><td><input type="text" name="user"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Password:</td><td><input type="password" name="pass"></td></tr>
<tr><td></td><td><input type="submit" value="Submit"></td></tr>
</table>
</form>
</html>
<%String msg=request.getParameter("msg");
if(msg!=null){
    %>
<label><font color="red"><%=msg%></font></label>

}
    %>

2)check.jsp:

<%@page import="java.sql.*"%>

<%
String user=request.getParameter("user");
String pass=request.getParameter("pass");
 Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance();
    Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test","root","root");

           ResultSet rs=st.executeQuery("select * from login where username='"+user+"' and password='"+pass+"'");
int count=0;
          while(rs.next())
          {

                   count++;
          }

                    if(count>0)
          {
