Does XAML contain a subset of html tags?

I know that there are lot of tags in XAML that have simmilar names in ht开发者_如何学JAVAml. Is this because XAML contains all of the tags that html does, or is it just coincidence?

No XAML and HTML are completely different. XAML tags map to .NET objects and properties.
There are some XAML tags named similarly to mimic document functionality, like <Paragraph>, <Bold>, but the top of my head, I actually can't think of many that are exactly the same. Are you sure you aren't refering to XHTML?
