If you point the link to /user, they'll get the login form if they aren't logged in. If they are, they'll get their user account page.

hi ,

I tried as u suggest , the link takes the user to login page but in the page it displays only username and password with login button but
Create an account and Remember password

is not visible , so it can be used only by members, in case if the user is new he needs to create an account , it not possible ... please help me out

This is the second day am working on it ,At present my login module is in content block , which is visible in all pages or nodes , but my idea is to make the login module visible on the content area in a particular login node or page which i have already created , on clicking the
link LOGIN

in header...

Any help is really appreciated ,

Thank you !!

There won't be any such links, but tabs.
Or you can place the login block in content area.

hi,

As u all suggest it not possible to have such links , i tried other way around , Now i have placed my login module in header below inset-banner above content. I made modification in CSS of following 

.form-item label {
display:inline;
float:left;
font-weight:bold;
}
.form-item {
float:left;
margin-bottom:1em;
margin-top:0 !important;
width:200px;
}
#user-login-form {
text-align:left;
}
form#user-login-form ul li{
display:inline;
}
form#user-login-form ul{
width:300px;
}
form#user-login-form .item-list {
float:left;
margin-left:55px;
margin-top:-20px;
width:300px;
}
.block.block-user h2 {
background:#DAEFFA url(images/module-h3.png) repeat-x scroll 0% 0%;
border-color:#B7ECF5;
border-style:solid;
border-width:1px 3px;
color:#02576B;
float:left;
font-family:Tahoma,Helvetica,Arial Narrow;
font-size:120%;
margin:-7px 6pt 10px;
padding:5px 0pt 5px 8px;
width:100px;
}

to make a horizontal look of login but it have bad look like following below inset-banner :

username textbox password textbox loginbutton Createnewaccount Requestnewpassword

but i want to look like

Login | Createnewaccount | Requestnewpassword

is it possible ?

Thank you !!!!!!!

All you have to do is, modify the css with the help of firebug.
you need to insert a css rule float:left at few places, and that will do.
