1) Conditional formatting and Conditional Style are same. By defining either string/boolean variable, we assign this to the Style Variable under properties section. Used for applying color/size and overflow etc....
2) For Conditional Block, we define a variable as stated in (1) and assign the same to block variable under properties section.
To render an object(table/list/crosstab/repeater/prompt buttons and so on...) we use conditional block and block variable.
3) For rendering pages(report or prompt pages), we define a variable as stated in (1) and assign the same to Render Variable under properties section.

Render variable can be set on more than just pages... Graphs, Crosstabs, Lists, etc... can also be conditionally rendered
