At the time I set things up with span and class I was
disgusted with trying to use the sup and sub tags. No
matter what I tried, the html tags persisted in giving
me increased line heights so that my text which had
some lines without superscripts or subscripts and some
with looked pretty weird. Perhaps there is a good way
to tame the tags but I didn't find it; once I wrote
the sp and sb classed into my style sheet they worked
quite nicely and I never looked back.
