		<description><![CDATA[As the MySQL USER() command returns users as &#8216;user&#8217;@'host&#8217;, it can be difficult to do straight comparasons. One way to extract both username and host is by using SUBSTRING_INDEX. For example, in a stored procedure you could use:

-- USER
SELECT SUBSTRING_INDEX(USER(), '@', 1) INTO txtUsername;
-- HOST
SELECT SUBSTRING_INDEX(USER(), '@', -1) INTO txtHost;

Voila!
