The Before Report Value property specifies a header to appear at the beginning 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 the first page of
your report output. To specify HTML to apply to the entire report (for example,
background color or images, or any other <body>
HTML attributes),
you must use the Before Page properties.
