yii2 create a button without any model field

Question

I need to have two buttons on my home page, Login and Register. When user click on Login button I need to render a LoginView, while on Register button there will be RegisterView. I see these questions but these also have fields in model(dynamic model):

ActiveForm without model yii2

Yii2 create a form without a model

I don't want to use any model field, I only want to render different view on click event to different buttons. Or in other words, how can I set a button to call specific controller's action on its click event?

How this can be done with Yii2 framework.

Use `= Html::a('label', ['/controller/action'], ['class'=>'btn btn-primary']) ?>` — Insane Skull, Feb 10 '16 at 08:51
what about @ZeiZ answer in the second link you provided ? I think related docs could be found [here](http://www.yiiframework.com/doc-2.0/guide-helper-html.html#creating-forms). — Salem Ouerdani, Feb 10 '16 at 08:51
@SalemOuerdani, yes that's also another option, but I think Insane's answer is simpler one. — M_Idrees, Feb 10 '16 at 09:13
