Perhaps "mixing" was the wrong word - I do understand
what are trying to achieve- all I was trying to say is that you
can use the sitemap to pass information on the currently
logged-in user to the database.

How would I achieve that ? With database actions ?

As sitemap parameters, would be one way.


How can I use sitemap parameters for login purposes ?
Isn't it better to use the session to store my login information and use that for authentication ?

- this has the advantage of not tying you to
the specifics of authentication of that particular database.
I think this is a better  approach than asking the database to
do it; your comparison with the timestamp field is not really
a valid one as the database does not need to know anything
about the "external environment" to make this kind of entry...

I don't understand this.  The timestamp field is to see when updates
where done on the database (and by who -> actor)

I am not sure what you don't understand; you made the comparison between the database having a "user stamp" in the same way that there is a "timestamp" - and I am saying these are totally different things.

Ok, we're talking about the same thing. I use the word timestamp, but the word userstamp may be more correct
