well, two things to do.
1- Use Static Choice for Prompt
2- Apply render variable to render the pages

You can use the Render Variable method.

Make a String Variable and place the CASE WHEN Statement with the Parameter values. In the Page Explorer, go to Page Properties, Set the Render Variable and select the respective choice for the Page.

I believe, that can solve your problem.

Code
  1. span style="color: #ff0000;">'Page 1' then 'P1'

  2. ?Par_Text_prompt? = 'Page 2' then 'P2'

  3. .....

  4. .....

  5. END
