Tigger - username issue

[vartika thakur]

One of the difficulties I’m having is tracking the person who made the change. In a typical MySql Web application pattern, a user submits credentials, gets authorized against a database table, and then is granted access. The identity of this user is preserved in a cookie. However, in my experience, a MySql trigger can’t get at the cookie. Do you know if there’s any mechanism to pass the user’s identity using, say, the connection string? Some other path?
