texte = In our 4D databases we commonly limit inactivity-time for users with special permissions: if a user leaves the browser on screen and goes for lunch, another user should not be able to connect to the database after a specified time. Therefore we generate a user-id (could be [cart]) and an associated TimeStamp which gets updated through every action - link, submit, etc.How is that usually done in WebCat? I am thinking about storing user ID and TimeStamp in a db file and update it every time a page gets loaded. Of course, that will reduce the performance... Is there a better solution?
