Superscript Text


Superscript text in HTML is used to raise text above the normal line of text, typically for footnotes, mathematical expressions, and chemical formulas.

 

Using the <sup> Tag

The <sup> tag is used to create superscript text in HTML. It raises the text slightly above the baseline and reduces the font size.
