Actualy what are conditional tags?
have you heard of if, if else, conditions?
If you want to work something in only specified conditions, these tags will be helpful.
Blogger Conditional tags allows you to display files or pages or scripts only under conditions.
It is very similar to conditional tags in any other language. This includes tags such as if, if else. you can use it in your widgets, or blogger main template as well.
If Else type conditional programing in blogger can be done by using <b:if cond=' '>...</b:if> tag.
