in velocity, you could use this:

#if($helper.page.isFavourite($action.remoteUser))
	<a href="$req.contextPath/labels/removefavourite.action?entityId=$helper.page.id&#url_xsrfToken()"  alt-title="$action.getText('favourite.add.page')" title="$action.getText('favourite.remove.page')"   class="fav-toggle active aui-button" >
		remove
	</a>
#else
	<a href="$req.contextPath/labels/addfavourite.action?entityId=$helper.page.id&#url_xsrfToken()"   alt-title="$action.getText('favourite.remove.page')" title="$action.getText('favourite.add.page')"   class="fav-toggle aui-button " >
		add
	</a>

#end

similar in java ;-)

Thanks for the code snippet, Oliver, it helped me greatly. However, I had to make some minor adjustments:

#if($content.isFavourite($action.remoteUser))
    <a href="$req.contextPath/labels/removefavourite.action?entityId=$content.getIdAsString()&#url_xsrfToken()"  alt-title="$action.getText('favourite.add.page')" title="$action.getText('favourite.remove.page')"   class="fav-toggle aui-button">
        remove
    </a>
#else
    <a href="$req.contextPath/labels/addfavourite.action?entityId=$content.getIdAsString()&#url_xsrfToken()"   alt-title="$action.getText('favourite.remove.page')" title="$action.getText('favourite.add.page')"   class="fav-toggle aui-button">
        add
    </a>
 
#end
