There is a whole lot missing from that example, like two right braces at least. is switch supposed to be a label? 

 
switch: { 
warn("manage_users.cgi line 54 '$action'");
      #Request from User for Login Form
      ($action eq "GetLoginForm")  && do {
        manageusers::OpenConnection();
        } 
 }

or a call to the switch method in CGI::Switch? http://search.cpan.org/~chips/perl5.004/lib/CGI/Switch.pm CGI::Switch - Try more than one constructors and return the first object available 

my $q = new CGI::Switch;

or use of the plain switch module? http://search.cpan.org/~chorny/Switch-2.17/Switch.pm 

use Switch;

    switch ($val) {
        case 1          { print "number 1" }
        case "a"        { print "string a" }
        case [1..10,42] { print "number in list" }
        case (\@array)  { print "number in list" }
        case /\w+/      { print "pattern" }
        case qr/\w+/    { print "pattern" }
        case (\%hash)   { print "entry in hash" }
        case (\&sub)    { print "arg to subroutine" }
        else            { print "previous case not true" }
    }

I originally discounted this because of the lack of the switch constructs like case, but decided to add it too
