Ignore password update page if post field is empty

A recall that we did in dataassist was that on a user update page if they typed a new password it would get updated but if we left the password post field empty it would just keep the one stored in the database

I tried this method from when we used Datassist

<?php echo ((($_POST["UserPassword"] != ""))?WA_MD5Encryption($_POST["UserPassword"]):$row_WADAusers["UserPassword"]); ?>



So it looks like this

<?php echo  ((($_POST["UserPassword"] != ""))?WA_MD5Encryption($_POST["UserPassword"]):$updateuser->getColumnVal("UserPassword")); ?>



But this way I get the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ' ' (T_STRING) in ............

How can I get this to work without using a hidden field for the password?
