Can someone please help me?
Try this:

$HandleActions['switchauth'] = 'switchauth'; # if url contains
action=myaction call HandleMyAction timely
$HandleAuth['switchauth'] = 'attr'; # authorization
level
$auth for HandleMyAction

of handler function required by PMWiki
Lock(2);
$pagestuff = RetrieveAuthPage($pagename, 'attr', false);
$old=$pagestuff;
if($pagestuff['protected']=='true'){
// (Ideally we would strip out the exact passwd rather than
blanking
// the whole thing.)
$pagestuff['passwdread'] = ''; // set it to no passwd (loses
any other passwd - sorry)
$pagestuff['protected']='false';
#echo "DEBUG: UNprotecting<br>\n";
} else {
// (Ideally we would append the passwd rather than replacing
what
may
// have existed before.)
$pagestuff['passwdread'] = crypt('test');
$pagestuff['protected']='true';
#echo "DEBUG: Protecting<br>\n";
}
UpdatePage($pagename, $old, $pagestuff);
#echo "DEBUG: Updated<br>\n";
Redirect($pagename);
Lock(0);
}
$FmtPV['$protected'] = 'PageIsProtected($pagename,"edit")';
function PageIsProtected($pagename, $level)
{
global $PCache, $PasswdVarAuth, $FmtV;
$page = $PCache[$pagename];
if (!isset($page['=passwd'][$level])) {
$page = RetrieveAuthPage($pagename, 'ALWAYS', false,
READPAGE_CURRENT);
if ($page) PCache($pagename, $page);
}
$protected = @$page['protected']; // either "true" or something else
return ($protected);
}

Note that if someone sets another password on a page (pmwiki allows
multiple passwords) and then this action is used on that page then
the
additional password will be lost. I've referred to that problem in
the comments -- not a big deal to fix, but I don't remember if a
space
or something else is the separator between multiple passwords.
Since you've got the convenient $page['protected'] in there I went
ahead and used that to set the {$protected} PV and used it in
Site.PageActions like this (accesskey is pretty non-standard):
===(snip)===
(:if auth attr:)
* %item rel=nofollow class=switchauth accesskey="s"%
[[{*$FullName}?action=switchauth | (:if1 equal {$protected} "true":)
Unprotect (:else1:) Protect (:if1end:) ]]
(:ifend:)
===(snip)===
If this ends up working for you, please publish it as a recipe in
the
cookbook -- it seems like something that someone else may be able to
use in various contexts...
