The Before Page Value property specifies a header to appear at the beginning of each page (in this case, a page refers to a report page) of your document when the report's paper layout is run to HTML and viewed in a Web browser. This property has no effect on the Web source.
If you use HTML page streaming, this property applies to all pages of your report output (for example, background color or images, or any other <body> HTML attributes). To specify HTML for only the first (header) or last (footer) pages of your report, use the Before Report or After Report properties, respectively.

This property is useful for placing a logo or some standard links at the beginning of each page of an HTML document.
If you want this value to apply only to the current page, you can specify it in a Format Trigger for an object on that page.
Following is an example of a value for the Before Page Value and After Page Value properties to center the document in the browser:
Before Page value: <CENTER>
After Page value: </CENTER>
