RE: [xsl] Sub- and Superscript

[Robert Seber <robert.seber@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here's a dirty hack (tested in IE5 and NS4) that will achieve this effect:

A<sup>1</sup><span style="position:relative;left:-6"><sub>2</sub></span>

The 6 is dependent on your font size (bigger font, bigger number).

This is really an HTML question though, not an XSL question.
