Get value from a parameter in URL in JSP

My URL is : /something/page.jsp?viewall=1&CategoryID=1

I want to get CategoryID parameter value as follow.

<%
//String cat = "All";
String cat = request.getParameter("CategoryID").toString();
//String catID = catI.toString();
if(cat == "1")
{
  cat = "Books";
}
else
{
     cat = "something";
}
%>

I want to print value of cat as follow

<%= cat %>

But it is still printing something and according to code it must print Books

I don't know if there is any Data type problem or what . Please help me.

This is a String value, so you need to use:

if (("1").equals(cat))
