As an additional information, Stripes uses the value of a tag only if it cannot find a suitable value in your action bean. Since the lidNumber property has a value of 0, it is considered suitable and value is ignored. The best way to initialize properties of an ActionBean is with a method annotated with @Before(stages=LifecycleStage.BindingAndValidation).
As others suggested, your best option for your specific question is to subclass ActionBeanContext to have a getLidNumber() method in it that returns the value from session. You can also use context.getRequest().getsession().getAttribute("lid").getLidNumber() instead.
