Why "(file_exists("filename.ext")) ? echo "text1" : echo "text2";" doesn't work ? Works with print...

Ideally, this should be done like this :
  <?php
      echo (file_exists('filename.ext')) ? 'text1' : 'text2'; 
  ?>
No reason to use two echos or prints.  Have a look here :
    What is the difference between echo and print             ?

Print is a function, echo is an expression.  Another faqt that deals 
with this question is here :
    Can I use echo inside a ternary expression                ?
