Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF in /home/content/s/e/c/sectarian/html/bdon/farcry/login.php on line 6

I get this error every time i run it. Here is my code:

<?php

$username = #_POST['username'];
$password = #_POST['password'];

if ($username&&$password)
{

$connect = mysql_connect("localhost","root","") or die ("couldn't connect!");
mysql_select_db("phplogin") or die ("couldnt find db");


}
else
die("Please enter a username and a passwrod!");


?>
