Superscript and Subscript


You can vertically align your text within a web page.

Superscript Example

3×102

Place the following code before the text you would like to align:

<span style="vertical-align: 30%;">3x102</span>

Edit the text in bold to suit your needs.

Place the following code after the text you would like to align:

</span>


Subscript Example

C6H12O6

Place the following code before the text you would like to align:

<span style="vertical-align: 30%;">C6H12O6</span>

Edit the text in bold to suit your needs.

Place the following code after the text you would like to align:

</span>

The percentage specifies a percentage of the distance to the line height above or below the normal line height. It raises or lowers the baseline by a percentage of the line-height to the next line. For example, a value of 50% will raise the baseline to halfway between the normal baseline and the baseline of the line above. A value of -100% will lower the baseline to the same height as the baseline of the line below. 30% or -30% looks about right for things like scientific notation.
