        thats what i usually do ... just add a column to the table named
'ts' with the default value of 'sysdate' then cull the values with a
trigger (not the program!)
        if your cracking open someone else's code for something why not
add a few other tid bits like the CGI::remote_user(), CGI::self_url() to
it (as separate nullable columns) as well if($debug) so that you can
easily track down any problems that might be occuring when you interface
with your own CGI's.
