Short if statement not showing any output [closed]

Question

I am trying to autofill form input data if it is set.

Unfortunately, it looks like my if statement is not working at all. I mean it doesn't show anything, no matter if its true or false.

<input type="text" value="<?php (isset($formData->fname)) ? 'ok' : 'error'; ?>" name="fname">

The value always looks like this:

I was also trying this way but it isn't working:

<?php (isset($formData->fname)) ? echo 'ok'; : echo 'error'; ?>

What am I doing wrong?

<?php echo (isset($formData->fname)) ? 'ok' : 'error'; ?>
